README

feedbackapp

A very simple feedback app in golang, for real-time anonymous feedback during a conference or so:

• audience can submit text (rate limited by IP, sanitized)
• viewing feedback is password protected, auto-refreshes
• simple admin interface (create/delete tags, show links/QR codes)

run

• In a folder, create a htpasswd file with admin user: htpasswd -c feedbackapp-logins.htpasswd <username>.
• Download the executable and run it.
• Go to https://localhost:8000/admin, first create a new tag (alphanumeric).
• Deployment: run it behind a reverse SSL proxy!
