Description
The Openverse.org homepage shuffles between 3 collections of images: pottery, universe and olympics. These collections represent a infinitesimal fraction of the 800M+ images in our collection.
The goal is to surface the collection of images on the frontend via an API endpoint (that can be cached long-term) so that the list of images can be changed often. We can also use this endpoint to provide topical images based on events, holidays, feature launches etc.
These images can serve as entrypoints for a more exploratory approach to the collection (#2710) rather than one that revolves around search.
