Supple
Gaming video platforms are cluttered with algorithms and ads, so I built a clean community driven space for gamers to share YouTube videos, vote on content, and engage in meaningful discussions. See closed test demo here.
What It Does
- Lets users share and discover gaming YouTube videos
- Community voting system to surface the best content
- Threaded comment discussions on videos
- User profiles with gaming stats and achievements
- Category based video organization
How It Works
Frontend
- Built with React and TypeScript for a modern, responsive interface
- Features video cards, voting actions, and comment threads
- User authentication with profile management
- Mobile optimized-ish design with dark theme
- Real time updates for votes and comments
Backend
- ASP.NET Core API with clean architecture pattern
- Azure Blob Storage for profile pictures and media
- YouTube API integration for video validation
- Cookie based authentication with secure sessions
- SQL Server database
