I built the platform I wish existed! [ jadeStage ]

Source: Dev.to

Overview

I am still learning to code and prefer to learn by doing, so I built an MVP of an idea that has been a brainchild since before kindergarten. Built with vanilla JavaScript, it’s an MVP focused on proving less is more. The mission is to innovate transparency, discovery, and equity in video streaming.

Tired of opaque algorithms deciding what you watch? jadeStage flips the script.

Our “algorithm” is simple: videos go in a playlist, you hit shuffle. That’s it.

What you get

• True random discovery
• Equal visibility for all creators
• Transparent by design

Built for creators tired of algorithmic curation and viewers craving genuine discovery.

Try it: hit shuffle and discover something new. Upload your own videos and get equal visibility.

We’re interested in feedback on whether this model resonates and what you would like to see in the next versions.
