Intro

This is a meme stream app where anyone can post memes.

To post memes users have to provide three things -

1. Name of the user who is posting the meme

2. Caption for the meme

3. URL of the meme

In the main page there is a form which user have to fill to post a meme.

Just below the form a list of latest 100 memes posted by various users is shown.

When an user posts a new meme the timeiline below the form is automatically updated.

Front Page :

Along with these there is another feature to edit a meme caption of meme-url or both.

There is a button added below each meme to edit the meme. when user will press the button a pop up window will appear. Where user have to provide atleast new caption or new meme-url.

This app is built using the following tech-stack :

Front-End : HTML, CSS, Javascript
