in plain english

FlowSync is a web application that lets users discover, upload, and browse visual content in a Pinterest-style layout. It was built as a creative platform with a cinematic look and feel, meaning images and cards are presented in a visually immersive way rather than a plain list. The project includes both a front-end website and a back-end server that work together, and it is already deployed live online. On the front end, the interface is built with React and styled using TailwindCSS, with animations powered by Framer Motion. These choices give the site a polished, modern appearance. When a user clicks on any image, a full-screen preview opens showing the image alongside details such as the title, description, tags, upload date, and the name of the person who uploaded it. Smaller cards in the main feed also show tags, formatted dates, and owner names at a glance. For handling files, the platform uses Amazon S3, a cloud storage service, to store uploaded images. Users can upload images through the site, and they are saved directly to that storage. Only the person who originally uploaded an image, the owner, can delete it. When they do, the record is removed from the database and the corresponding file is also deleted from cloud storage, keeping everything consistent. The back end is a Node.js server using Express as its framework, connected to MongoDB to store records about each image, its owner, and its details. A library called Multer-S3 handles the process of taking a file from the user and sending it to S3. The project is live at two public URLs: the front-end website is hosted on Vercel and the back-end API runs on Render. The README does not include steps to run the project locally, so anyone wanting to use FlowSync would visit the deployed site directly.
