πŸ’‘ What's your idea?

Add an image upload and display feature in the app β€” allowing users to attach, view, and manage images within their posts or profiles.

πŸ€” Why would this be useful?

Currently, users can only share text-based content.
Adding image support would make the app much more engaging and interactive β€” users could share screenshots, photos, or visual references related to their posts.
It also improves collaboration and context in shared content.

🎯 Where should this feature go?

  • 🌐 Website (React web client)
  • πŸ“± Mobile app (Flutter mobile client)
  • πŸ”§ Core Protocol (Go - main LIBR logic)
  • 🌐 Network Layer (Go - P2P networking)
  • πŸ”— Smart contracts (Blockchain)
  • πŸ“š Documentation
  • πŸ› οΈ Development tools

πŸ–ΌοΈ How should it look/work?

Users should be able to:
-Upload an image when creating or editing a post.
-View uploaded images in the post feed or detail view.

For the UI:

-Add an β€œUpload Image” button in the post creation form.
-Show a small image preview before submitting.
-On the post, display the image below the text content.

🌟 How important is this feature?

  • πŸ”₯ Critical - I really need this to use the app
  • 🎯 High - This would make the app much better
  • 😊 Medium - This would be nice to have
  • 🀷 Low - Just a small improvement

πŸ“š Examples

Apps like Reddit, Twitter (X), and Discord allow users to attach images in posts or messages β€” this makes the content more expressive and engaging.
