camera-intent-app (repo)

This repository includes a static Camera Intent web app under camera-intent-app/.

Live site (GitHub Pages)

After you enable Pages (see below), the app is served at:

https://anushb1.github.io/camera-intent-app/

Use HTTPS so the phone browser allows the camera and motion APIs.

If the UI looks old, hard-refresh (mobile: open in a new tab or clear site data) — GitHub Pages and Safari cache aggressively.

One-time GitHub setup

1. Push this repo to GitHub (you already have origin set).
2. On GitHub: Settings → Pages → Build and deployment
3. Under Source, choose GitHub Actions (not “Deploy from a branch”).
4. Push to main or run the workflow manually (Actions → Deploy to GitHub Pages → Run workflow).

The workflow file is .github/workflows/deploy-pages.yml.

Local testing

cd camera-intent-app
python3 -m http.server 8765

Open http://127.0.0.1:8765/

Phone testing

Open the Live site URL in Safari or Chrome. Allow camera (and motion if asked). Add the page to the home screen if you want a full-screen feel.
