alphanull was responsible for designing and developing a web app, including modeling the REST API and various data structures. The app utilizes a self-developed framework and components, leveraging Vue.js for templates and user interactions. This modular approach enhances flexibility and customization, ensuring the app isn’t monolithic, i.e. not dependent only on a single framework.
The “Releases” page showcases all albums, singles, and EPs created by users, providing a quick status overview for each product.
The “Cockpit” screen, displayed after login, offers insights into payouts, analytics, messages, and recently edited products. The “Analytics” section presents charts with various views and filters, including a map view for country-specific data.
The app also supports media file management, including cover artwork and audio files. It features a robust upload function that works in the background, allowing users to queue and resume uploads — particularly beneficial for large audio files. Audio playback is handled by a customized version of the alphanull Media Player, which includes a generated audio waveform for enhanced visual feedback. All uploads are thoroughly verified to ensure compatibility and prevent issues.
Additionally, the app boasts a responsive design for all screen sizes and orientations, performing seamlessly on touch devices. It is themeable and multilingual, easily adaptable to different designs, as illustrated by the light version of the standard interface.
