[MDC Fellowship 2015] shiny little instagram app

The Shiny Instagram Thing

Intent

[Litterati] (http://www.litterati.org/)

There's an ask for an app that tracks especially high king tides in Miami-Dade County. Rather than reinvent the wheel, let's try to tap the Instagram API and a mapping API (to be determined) to build it out.

MVP:

Use the Instagram API to track a single, probably hardcoded, hashtag and display those images on a map of Miami-Dade County. Roll it all into a site similar to Litterati.

Second:

Admin back-end that allows:

• login
• control over the tracked hashtag
• control over the map display area (for example, instead of #kingtide in Miami, #tarballs in Galveston, etc).

Install

We'll get back to you on this one....

1. Register with Instagram
2. Install NPM, Grunt, Assemble
3. Install dependencies (being super detailed because it'll have to be replicated): npm install grunt-contrib-compass --save-dev npm install grunt-contrib-watch --save-dev npm install grunt-contrib-clean --save-dev npm install grunt-verb --save-dev npm install grunt-newer --save-dev

Run

...and this one too.
