As an artist who loves seeing other people's art one of the things I've found frustrating on hive is how hard it is to see hive art all togethere. While I watch quite a few of the art communities, it's really hard to find what I'm really looking for, which is a way to scroll and find the many talented artworks on our amazing blockchain.
So this Sunday morning I sat down with Claude co-work, a coffee, and explained the idea. Answered claude's questions about design features and what logging in would do. So sipping away at a slightly weak cup of coffee this came into being.
I was constantly amazed at just how quickly AI can take technological ides and create something.
Using github pages I made something I can share here
https://klvandermeer.github.io/hive-art-discovery/
I can also share the git page
https://github.com/klvandermeer/hive-art-discovery
Currently users can pin or favorite artwork posts, and eventually there will be ways folks can collect work in ways that are more intuitive. As well as artists having their own pages so they can highlight their best and favorite works.
Currently users can also toggle between NSFW and AI artwork being shown. Which is currently a pair of not really pretty buttons/boxes that can be pressed. Folks might want to see AI images, while others don't. The idea of this site is to help people find artist they want and I know I personally want to find human artist making things. But also respect that some people want to see AI generated stuff. Currently, I'm depending on people tagging their work, or using obvious tells in their post to filter.
I cannot get over the fact that this, well prototype is live in just a few hours. Look forward to working on it again next weekend when I've had time to think about features more.
Things that I'm going to get working next weekend
-Get hivesigner working so those who don't use keychain can log in -Artist pages -percentage voting(currently voting is 100%) -More tags and communities included -A fun way for folks to post wips as something similar to snaps/waves.
Thanks for checking out what I did this weekend!
