I made something for Mastodon: A gallery mini-app.

You can simply drop it in your Mastodon server's public folder, and it will show images from your server in a mosaic grid with infinite scroll. Supports some configuration as well, e.g. whether to limit it to only local images, or a specific hashtag, or which server to fetch from.
@Gargron cool! Is it available on m.s?
@rysiek Uhhh if you give me a few minutes, it will be
@Gargron hah, no pressure, was just curious!
Thanks!
@Gargron Awesome! Where can we view a little demo?
@Gargron so much furry art i love this already
@Gargron Wow! Inspiring to see these works. Very cool!
@Gargron well now...that's kinda swanky. Good stuff!
@Gargron Interesting.
Using the Falkon browser, I only get a limited number of images. When I try it using MastaLab on my phone, I get a lot of images that don't show up on the browser version.
@Gargron Seems to work fine under Firefox. I wonder what the problem with Falkon/QupZilla is.
@Gargron Ok that's super fucking cool
@Gargron Nice work. Is this a feature that will be available to all?
@Gargron Is the visibility of the toots considered? Eg are only media showed from public toots?
@Gargron
Thanks for the clarification.
Very nice!
@Gargron Very cool, and great example of whats possible with the Mastodon API!
@Gargron I think that's very nice !!
Maybe that's something for @mastohost ?
So I would like to use :)
@KaptainRio I will have to look deeper into it, to see what it would involve on my end to see if I can make it possible
@mastohost Thats amazing !! Thx Hugo 👍🏼

@Gargron super cool!
@Gargron You can code for Mastodon?? I mean... Could I if I wanted to? That's radical. I'm new to this social network and coding something for Twitter or Facebook would be just a dream. Is it possible to ADD things to the network?
@neontiger mastodon has an open api, so anyone can write apps or plugins for it, like Gargron's gallery tool or https://pinafore.social/
Mastodon federates using the ActivityPub protocol, as does Pleroma, Peertube, plume, and pixelfed. Anyone with the appropriate skills can build their own social network that communicates with the rest of the fediverse using ActivityPub: https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/
You can also contribute code to mastodon itself through github: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon
@Gargron Thanks for the cool singe page app! I easily deployed one for my instance at https://mastodon-gallery.zunda.ninja/ through Netlify!
I'd appreciate if you could clarify the license on your original code so everyone will feel more safe to clone your code, when you have time.
@zundan Sure, i will
@Gargron Thanks!!1
@Gargron I have also tried to setup #cats gallery, and now it works on
https://catgram.jp/gallery/

@Gargron Looks good. Thank you.
Okay, here is a demo! Everything in #mastoart:
