Hi there,

This site has a focus on music. Not being able to share audio clips makes no sense. Of course you can use a third party tool to share audio clips but I think the barrier is too big.

Here’s what I want to do: I want to create a micro application that allows people to upload audio or video clips to be able to embed them into their posts. The design goals are:

  • low barrier of entry
  • good viewing experience
  • useful on mobile

Now I can easily do the technical stuff (upload and store files, embedding, deployment) but I’ve always had a hard time with graphical design for small apps with very few features.

Would any of you have the skills and time to contribute a design?

Hm that's actually not a bad idea. Initially I wanted to make it unauthenticated and just make a website where you can drop files.

The downside would be that only local users could upload audio and video as they would have to use waveform.social to do that.
