Pirate Storytime

Making up stories for children on the spot is both enjoyable and challenging. This app allows you to store story ideas for later and share them with other users.
Users can add ideas in five categories of story elements. They can choose to make these public or keep them private. They can also search through the public cards and add them to their favorites.

Built With

Mongo, Express, AngularJS, Node.js, Javascript, SweetAlert2, Angular Material and Filestack.

Getting Started

The first time you log in to Pirate Storytime it will generate cards for you from the pirateverse. Later, you can go to settings and change the source to My Favorites or My Cards.
