A website that allows you to search, browse and download all past iOS wallpapers

alt text

Anyone who follows me on Twitter or Github knows I work on my own startup Idea and a few pet projects. One of these includes this. A website that allows you to search, browse and download all past iOS wallpapers. All built with vue.js but built as a PWA as well.

You can try out the app here and the source code is here.

Any feedback or questions I would love to answer. Also my whole website is 100% in light house.

I would seriously consider putting the images through a site like (tinypng.com/) for some lossless file compression. I don't know if you did this before but I just loaded every image on the page and I saw this:

I would suggest adding a page with just the links to all the images

One of the most common oversights in all these kinds of threads. Image delivery optimization is a must on the web.

Awesome work, love that you have the Apple loading symbol.

One nitpick would be to change iOs (lowercase s) to iOS (capital S).

Excited to download the "True Black" wallpaper, since it might save battery life? Hopefully?
