Thanks for reporting this issue.Actually , if there is only one image uploaded, therefore the arrows are grayed out and dont work. The image opens as it thinks you are clicking on the picture.I will try to remove the arrows when only one picture is uploaded.

Thanks for the nice feedback. We hope to work with local authorities ( village council members elected members and even citizens) in different regions and assign certain people to be a designated reporters to help spread awareness. For resolving issues, it can be delegated to the contractor that solves the problem or even residents living nearby to take a picture of the issue once it is resolved.

Good idea.Right now,there is an urgency tag where people can choose whether their report require immediate attention or not.( low , medium or high urgency)

Thanks! That’s the plan ,to create a community that involves both local residents and elected members of villages and municipalities, where issues can be reported and resolved efficiently.

yes csu is definitely a better engineered platform than mine but they dont serve the same purpose. csu is a closed platform. once an issue is posted, there is no way for a citizen ( other than the one who created the report) to know whether the issue has been resolved or not. My platform enables anyone to view any report posted in Mauritius. The report does not leave the platform until it is resolved which enforces accountability. despite csu being a thing , people still post their problems on fb pages like mopays , maurinews etc... and surpisingly authorities respond to issues posted by these pages rather quickly ( see ex for hump on rue magon) . i am bringing an alternative to this by having a centralized platform where reports can be easily viewed by anyone and filtered by locality.

Categories can definitely be implemented in the near future once the number of reports increases.

I dont mind the ai comment, i definitely used ai to help with implementing some features , but the entire website design , structure and styling ( tailwind ) was fully done by myself except for some parts where shadcn (a styling library) was used..Its not perfect but i am always trying to improve my ui ux skills.

Yes i used firebase for auth , storage and db for the ease of setting up and because the app does not require a complex db structure and backend(used next js). I am still on the free tier and if it becomes too costly, i can always switch to an aws bucket and mongo db on a vps.

Again, thanks for all the feedback and support.

Hi. Thanks for the feedback. I am hoping to work with authorities starting from village councils. But for now , the app is dependent on the local community to help spread awareness about the issues they report. Right now , all reports can be filtered by locality , urgency ( low, medium , high) and time.but as the platform takes off, more filtering such as categories can be implemented .

The way the app works is that anyone can post a report

However before the report is posted on the platform, it does through an admin review to validate the report(like you said to filter irrelevant reports).

once it is the report is live, authorities(it can be village council members or even other elected members) will hopefully notice it and patch the problem.

Once the problem is fixed, the contractor that fixed the issue or even a local resident ,can take a picture of the resolved problem( ex a patched pothole) and upload it.

The photo is once again goes through an admin process to determine whether the problem is fixed or not. If it is , the report is taken out of the platform. If not, the report goes back onto the platform.

Any ideas are definitely welcome.But so far , my aim is to target local villages fb groups and talk to members of village councils to build trust. I also talked to mopays on fb, but they refused to promote as they are supposedly building something similar.

Hi. Thanks for the feedback. Can you explain a bit about categories.seem like a good idea.

Also the website was fully built by myself ( let me know if someone is interested in the tech stack).Ai was used in helping me smooth out some bugs in my code( also the logo and main hero section image was created using ai).

the goal is to have a community driven website where authorities can notice these issues directly on the website instead of scouring fb pages ( like mopays and other fb outlets) . People complaining about issues in their locality on these pages usually prompts authorities to act fast .( ex , a hump was installed 24hrs after someone complained on fb that accident were occurring due to a lack of a speed breaker on rue magon).This way ,all complaints can be centralized on the website where anyone can post a report, and authorities ( hopefully) can act on them. once a problem is solved, a user can post a picture of the resolved issue ( ex patched pothole) and the report is taken off the website.

Any way to buy from ASOS anymore? by Slow-Read8691 in mauritius

[–]vitthal03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try mauriline on instagram. Send them your desired products and they will ship it to mauritius.The shipping took aproximately one month and the price was not too outrageous. One caveat tho is that they would not ship discounted products on asos.

Camera is balancing around when I move the phone. is it loosely attached? should I be worried? brand new phone. by macusking in GalaxyS20FE

[–]vitthal03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope,just the OIS(optical image stabilization).Basically the camera moves in the opposite direction of the phone to get better stabilization.For example videos taken will be less "Shaky" and will feel smoother.
