Photodump

Inspiration

I had too many photos/videos on my computer and wasn't able to offload a hard drive onto my computer to free up space.

What it does

It searches the given directories, finds all media files of a certain type and places them into a database. It then gives the user the option to view a batch of 20 files at a time and decide if they want to keep or delete them, before moving onto the next batch.

How we built it

Used Python for the file search and used SQLite for the database.

Challenges we ran into

Couldn't get GUI working and this took too much time out of actually testing the program.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Being able to get the framework for a project down that I will continue.

What we learned

I will work on making the backend functionality before trying to figure out GUI. I also learned that I should push to git often as I got lost with all the changes I made. Lastly I learned that trying to make dependencies work together can cause a lot of errors.
