Show HN: User-first oriented picture browser optimised for Fujifilm Xhalf (nakarmamana.ch)

I'm currently having slightly too much time and wanted to explore how much is possible to do with just 24h, iPad, ChatGPT and SSH to a Linux box.

The effect is Fujifilm Manager available at https://git.nakarmamana.ch/alfanick/fujifilm-manager (the Show HN is just a demo). It's a collection of bash scripts generating highly optimised static HTML/CSS/JS to display virtual "film rolls" made with Fujifilm X-half camera that I sometimes use (think of it as a digital version of infinite amount of disposable analog cameras). Initially it was just a personal project, as I am sitting a bit bored in a clinic, but I am happy to share.

I am a Linux, optimization and UX freak. So I wanted to see how much can be done with ChatGPT from an iPad from a hospital bed. I practically did not write a single line a code, but I did proper engineering - ChatGPT was basically my intern doing coding for me, with tens (hundreds?) of iterations.

The effect is: - a static webpage for previewing "film" rolls, - that uses progressive and lazy loading of highly optimised pictures (with heavy caching too), - with UI/UX optimised for mobile devices like iPhone/iPad, - that can be used to share memories with friends and family, - but also cat be used to improve the photographic skills with the critic mode (try "a").

More functionality is explained in the readme of the repository. I might be slow to respond, it is getting late here, but I am happy to reply when I am around.
