Furniture visualisation platform for interior designers in Uganda — FastAPI + React + rembg # DesignView **Furniture visualisation platform for interior designers in Uganda.** DesignView lets designers upload client room photos, browse furniture from Kampala retailers, and place products into the room with automatic background removal — so clients can see exactly how furniture looks before buying. ## The Problem - Clients can't imagine how furniture will look in their homes - Designers waste time with physical samples and constant back-and-forth - Existing AR/visualisation tools are too expensive for the Ugandan market ## Features Built ### Backend (FastAPI) - JWT authentication via Supabase - Product CRUD API with pagination and category filtering - Image upload with automatic background removal (`rembg`) - Async image processing pipeline ### Frontend (React + Vite) - Designer authentication (signup/signin) - Furniture catalogue with category filters - Add product modal with image upload and live preview - Product cards with dimensions, pricing, and retailer info - Smooth animations and micro-interactions ## Tech Stack | Layer | Technology | |-------|-----------| | Backend | FastAPI + Python | | Frontend | React + Vite | | Database | Supabase (PostgreSQL) | | Auth | Supabase Auth | | Image Processing | rembg + OpenCV | | Styling | Tailwind CSS | ## Project Structure ``` DesignView/ ├── backend/ │ ├── app/ │ │ ├── main.py │ │ ├── routers/ # auth, products, health │ │ └── services/ # supabase_client, image_processing │ └── requirements.txt └── frontend/ └── src/ ├── context/ # AuthContext ├── pages/ # AuthPage, Dashboard ├── components/ # ProductCard, AddProductModal └── services/ # api.js ``` ## Getting Started ### Backend ```bash cd backend python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt cp .env.example .env # Add Supabase credentials uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 8000 ``` API docs: `localhost` ### Frontend ```bash cd frontend npm install npm r …
