Cinepillos (formerly “Club de Cine”) is an open source web app for organising film nights with friends. A group keeps a shared board of film suggestions, schedules a session and votes on which of the suggested films to watch.
Key features:
- Shared suggestions board: Any member can add a film by searching for it directly on the site, backed by TMDB.
- Sessions and voting: Each session has a date and time, a voting round opens between the suggestions, and the most voted film wins.
- Private groups: One instance can host several clubs at once, and nobody sees anything from another club.
- Avatars from TMDB and TVDB: Pick a movie poster or a character photo as your avatar.
- Stack and hosting: Next.js, Prisma and Postgres, deployed on Vercel with Neon, with Google sign-in. It can also be self-hosted with Docker Compose.
It is released under the AGPL-3.0 license. Read how it came about in the blog post.
