this site was created as a study assignment for Irkutsk State University (ISU). On assignment, we had to create a website with memes. It should support uploading new memes, viewing those already uploaded as a feed, authorizing and registering new users, and also allow users to rate posts with "like" or "dislike"

THIS VERSION IS LINUX ONLY

9. Profit!

User's page is the page for account's owner. There the user can look at memes uploaded by his/her hands or do some activities, if the user is an administrator

User roles can be divided into 3 groups. The first and most numerous are ordinary users. They can upload memes and delete uploaded by them ones. The second group is moderators, they can remove any memes from the site. And the third and last group, administrators. They have the same powers to delete posts as moderators, and they can also promote / demote other users, including moderators.
