i got this idea i’d say a week ago to recreate instagram’s old servers in node.js because i was bored and had nothing to do, and i finally have something that works, it’s far from complete but it’s usable!
you can post, like, comment, edit profile (including profile picture), you can also edit posts, i’m currently working on stories but they’re pretty difficult to understand lol
here are some screenshots of when i had my closed alpha server up tho!
i don’t know if i’ll ever make this project public in any way tho (source code, instance) cause it’s a fun little project i did on my spare time and i don’t want it to become hard to manage etc
i might release the source code once i get to fully rewriting it for better reading etc cause right now it’s just a mess & maybe also implementing more stuff lol
i am planning on making the source code public very soon btw, the code will be a bit messy since i still am pretty much a beginner in backend development (especially in node.js) but if you wanna help make it better contributions are always appreciated
lunar isn’t dead! i was actually waiting to be able to buy an iphone 4 to actually test it out and make it work properly on ios too! i am still working on lunar and will push updates once i get the iphone (which i finally ordered) and is able to test lunar properly
Its basically instagram 4 and 5 for iOS (5 and 6), its a private server but its free. Bag-xml.com. Also, you should join his discord for more info on it.
