🐱 Meowtheus

Meowtheus is an application for monitoring and streaming real-time meow events from your cats.

Current Features

• Real-time Meow Streaming: Live-stream of cat meows using Server-Sent Events (SSE).
• Animations and Effects: Smooth animations and auto-scrolling for the latest meow events.
• Multi-cat Support: Prepared to handle multiple cats (currently mocked for testing).

App Demo

Technology Stack

• Frontend: Svelte 5, Tailwind CSS
• Backend: NestJS, Server-Sent Events
• Deployment: Planned deployment on Vercel & Rails

How It Works

1. Cat Devices (Future): Small, lightweight hardware devices record meow events and send data to the backend.
2. Backend: NestJS receives and broadcasts meow events via SSE.
3. Frontend: Svelte frontend displays meows in real-time.

Planned Features

• Hardware Integration: Support physical devices (ESP32 or similar) to detect and stream actual cat meows.
• Cat Profiles: Customize and filter meows by individual cats.
• Data Analysis: Insightful analytics on meow patterns (frequency, time, etc.).
