You should have a look at Winds (https://getstream.io/winds). It keeps everything in one place and visibility seems to be a top priority. Pretty cool app and it's available for web and desktop.
This is a great point; however, we wanted to bring the user experience to the desktop. You are more than welcome to submit a PR to make this application web compatible.
Nick here, author of the post. Would love to hear your thoughts on this subject matter. I'll do my best to respond to all questions and comments. Cheers!
We just released an updated version of Winds using React 15.4 and it works wonderfully! Looking forward to seeing the perf improvements. http://winds.getstream.io if you're curious to see what we're working on at GetStream.io!
Nick here from GetStream.io (Winds). We didn't expect Winds to see so much traffic today, so we're experiencing temporary downtime. We'll have everything back up and running as soon as possible. Thank you for all of your support!
Do you have overhead? If so, yes. A non-profit still generates a significant amount of revenue... especially since they don't have to pay the same tax as a normal company does.
Hey all! I'm one of the main developers behind Cabin. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Questions and comments are always welcome :) Have fun!
I've successfully obtained several positions at notable companies as a software engineer and I don't have a degree. Hasn't set me back a bit. Self taught is the way to go if you ask me.
I think this is a great project but I think that the true problem with image processing these days is infrastructure. Image processing is a rather compute heavy task when you start seeing an influx of traffic. I'll openly announce that I'm one of the founders at http://6px.io, a hosted solution for image processing.
There are definitely competitors in the space. Do you think there is room for another assuming that speed, flexibility and pricing are the differentiators? What could make it the best on your opinion?
Aviary is a great product, but their primary service is different from what I'm building. They focus on client side applications similar to what Instagram provides (filters) in their mobile app. 6px is a solution for processing images -- one off or in batch. Think Instagam's backend processing infrastructure, available to all developers. If you have an image oriented application, you can offload the processing to 6px and don't have to worry about scaling as your application picks up traffic.
