- General Clunk
- Less Unique Community Identity
Canopy intends to be a simple node/express.js app. It leverages the piped and the internet archive REST api's, as well as yt-dlp, for metadata gathering. Persistant storage is handled by mongodb, as it's document based nature inherintly works well for cleanly storing large config documents for user/channel settings, and the low use of inter-collection references within the canopy software. All hardcore security functions like session handling, CSRF mitigation, and password hashing are handled by industry-standard open source libraries such as express-sessions, csrf-sync, and bcrypt, however it IS hobbiest software, and it should be treated as such.

Our current goal is to create a cleaner, more modern, purpose-built codebase that has feature-parity with the current version of fore.st, while writing improvements where possible. Once this is accomplished, and ourfore.st has been migrated, work will continue to re-create features from TTN, while also building completely new ones as well.
