I am planning to do a re-design in early 2020 for this site to be more minimalistic in design as I think the style attempt is good, but it could be a bit simpler, and be based on more templated designs. I’ll figure out how to do this using either purely templates, or purely JS.
I am really looking forward to working on the Bandcamper project soon. This project’s GitHub page can be found here:
The goal of this project is to perform the following actions:
- Scrape the Bandcamp tags page for the latest geographical tags (ex: US states) and genres
- Display a webpage to the user to prompt them to ask what genre or geographical state they’d be interested in terms of exploring bands from via a related email.
- Provide the user with the email at 6 AM every day to make the program static and not dependent on being a web app.
- Provide the user with the ability to opt out of an email every time.
- Limit messages per email to about 10 to prevent spam.
- Provide a user with a script that uses Youtube-dl Linux utility that automatically downloads these Bandcamp music for users.
