How to implement share like feature (like facebook) in getstream. Is it handled by getstream or we have to handle it at our own. I am using laravel framework.
I'm still learning GetStream, but here is how I would approach a "share" feature in GetStream.
In your comment you mentioned you wanted to "share my feed". I don't think you can share your feed. Other people can follow your feed, but you can't share it.
In Facebook, users can "share" a post. Then there are options to share on your timeline, as a message, to another feed, etc.
In regards to GetStream, you can share an Activity (or message) to another feed. That's about as far as I can go with this. Hope this helps.

I want to bulk create thousands of web stories (of the AMP/Google variety) using a standardized AMP web stories template populated with text and images from my database.
Anyone have any ideas? I am not a coder, but may be able to follow if you assume I know nothing :) Thanks for your consideration and time.
I have looked in GitHub and at several online services that provide tools to make web stories, but none offer it. VisualStories claims to offer an API that does this, but when I asked for paid access said they were not sharing this with customers anymore because they found that creating stories individually produced better results.
Thanks!

I want to create a real-time audio-calling application with nodejs. It will have a feature like Omegle (randomly) but only audio calling. A user also should be able to call people who he/she talked to before.
I found that Twillo and other sites have services like this but I want it to be free. Could you please suggest to me what to use and how to implement it? Any links or videos? Thanks!
I kept searching for a tutorial that explains the logic behind facebook notifications (or any similar notifications system) and I couldn't really find any that approach this.
I mean those notifications with a dropdown that say "X commented on your picture" and so on.
How would you guys build such a feature with node? (socket.io?) What would you store in the database? If someone can give me some references would be great.
I never did a notification system to be honest, but as far as I know, yes, sockets (and for node specifically, socket.io, it's the only one I know) can allow you to do that easily, you should look at their basic documentation to learn more about it and understand how it can be done, and yes you can at the same time as notifying the user about the like, store it in a database for further reference, you can store the time, the profile who liked the post, the ID of the post, this kind of things.
Hope I'm clear and that you will find socket.io documentation easy enough to build your notification system!
My primary question is: Can connected apps add relevant information to venue pages?
I am a coder and avid Foursquare user. The basic information about venues is cool (location, photos, tips, etc.), but while I have my meal (in the case of a restaurant) I'd like to have more to read about the venue, such as the back-story, i.e., what's the history of the place, when was it founded, by who, and other interesting facts about the venue.
I thought connected apps would be the answer and that perhaps I could write a simple wiki to integrate with the venue page for users to provide their knowledge about the venue. But it seems from what I've read that's not the the intent of a connected app or the API. Am I correct is this assumption? And if so, can this idea be dropped into the Foursquare suggestion box? I think it would make a great value added feature - especially for us nerds who like to read.
This is a great use case for connected apps. Connected apps can reply to check-ins with up to 200 characters of text, and a link to more content. This can be used to provide additional information about the venue. Take a look at https://foursquare.com/apps/ to see examples of connected apps, and the kinds of responses they give to check-ins.
I have a web application with a user base. I want to add a forum, but I don't want users to register there again.
I'm using Rails/Postgresql.
Is it possible to integrate the forum so that after registering in my site, a user will also be registered in a forum?
Thanks
Yes, it's possible. The simpler way is to centralize registering and authentication through the forum.
Implementation depend of what kind of forum you use and the structure of your site.
The packaged forum should have some kind of API that you can use to programmatically add a user when they register with your main site. If not, you can just write to the tables yourself (which is considerably riskier, but certainly doable if the forum software isn't ridiculously complex and over-engineered).
You may need to add some fields to your site's registration if the forum software requires some that you don't already have. If that's the case, the bigger challenge will be integrating existing users. You might have to use dummy values for them, or prompt them at their next login to supply the necessary values in order to complete their forum registration.
