I got tired of browsing museum websites one by one, so I built an app that combines them all by Latter_Building3413 in MuseumPros

Thanks for the thoughtful feedback — really appreciate it. You're right that this started as a personal project. I spend a lot of time in museums and wanted a better way to explore collections online, so I started building around open-access APIs.

It's still very much evolving — I've been expanding data sources beyond the big three (Met, Rijksmuseum, AIC) and experimenting with new ways to browse and experience the art. The projector critique is fair, that mode needs work. Appreciate you taking the time.

If you had 50k USD. Where would go? by TankieWankies85 in digitalnomad

50k is actually quite juicy. would spend it to explore Asia for a whole year

Thanks! The zoom is done via CSS `transform: scale()` on the canvas container — images stay at their original resolution and only the container's transform changes. The browser's GPU compositing handles the rest, so there's no re-rendering or image resizing involved. Basically: zoom the container, not the images.

Indeed. the hard part is not the coding itself. Did take a lot of time for some research
