v1.0.0-alpha.1-tracknow-pre-release

Version 1.0.0-alpha.1

Version 1.0.0-alpha.1 is the 'official' first pre-release version of tracknow, a web application that allows users to share and discover their best racing moments. This version includes the following features:

• User registration and authentication
• Adding and viewing racing moments, including car, track, time, and YouTube link
• Viewing a carousel of racing moments on the homepage
• Liking and unliking racing moments*

This pre-release version is intended for testing and feedback. Please report any bugs or issues you encounter, and let us know what features you would like to see in future releases.

Known Issues and Bugs

• YouTube link in carousel card needs to be lazy-loaded for improved performance
• Backend needs API key for authenticating its use #49
• Infinite swiping/scrolling of cards is not currently supported #50
• Cards are not currently randomized or sorted based on the newest added information (datetime needs to be included in the ORM model)

Future Releases

Future releases of tracknow will expand on the current functionality and add new features to create a more comprehensive and engaging social media platform for motorsports enthusiasts and simracers. Some potential features for future releases include:

• User profiles and personalized feeds
• Search and filtering options for racing moments
• Messaging and private messaging between users
• Integration with motorsports data and statistics APIs
• Mobile app support

I am excited to continue building tracknow and welcome your feedback and suggestions as we move towards a fully fledged social media app for motorsports enthusiasts and sim racers.
