Dev Log 14/11/16 (d/m/y)

The instant messaging function has been implemented server-side and a working prototype has been integrated with the visual side. It’s currently only invokable via the command log on web inspectors, but will be properly integrated soon.

It will be available as a minimal messenger sub-website if you want to use it as a messenger app with the rest of yGallery out of the way. (Like facebooks messenger.com)

Dev Log 1/11/16 (d/m/y)

Development appears to be going slowly, however this is not the case. The reason why our sister blog (ygalannouncements) hasn’t been announcing completed features is due to the fact that most of the current work is on the server side of things.

I’ve been recommenting all of the code for it to be easier understood by other developers (unlike the monstrosity that was the previous y!Gallery). As I’m sure you understand, this is a lot of work as there is already a lot of code.

We’ve been reworking the comments feature to be easier to understand, and have had to change the way user accounts were stored. This took quite a bit of work, but is now done. I can finally start working on new features for the site with the help of my other two devs, Justin, and Christina :D

Anyway, that was just a small update to make sure you guys know we’re alive and still working on things. @ygalannouncements
