Nothing But Photos

Minimal photo gallery with an infinite x/y draggable photo grid

Nothing But Photos
#Astro#React#Tailwind CSS#React Spring

Nothing But Photos is a no-frills way for me to showcase some of my street/travel/architectue/film photography.


The concept is simple; a folder full of photos is displayed as a thumbnail grid, each photo links to its own page with information extracted from the photo's EXIF data.


I chose Astro because it's very good at SSG (static site generation), and is very light weight. React is used mainly for the gesture/spring animations, however I'm exploring a more light weight version using svelte.


I used Tailwind because it's easy, and the site is small enough to not really have to worry about any scaling issues it introduces.
