zda··on Check: an platform to help journalists fact-check claims and debunk misinformation
Hi folks – this is a case study I just published of my experience helping design & build Check (https://checkmedia.org), an open-source platform for social media verification.

It's basically a React/Relay app with a GraphQL/Rails backend. You can see the source here:

https://github.com/meedan/check (Docker compose app)

https://github.com/meedan/check-web (client)

https://github.com/meedan/check-api (server)

I have no official connection to the project anymore, but I helped build a lot of the frontend over the past year and will answer any questions as best I can.

The writeup has a number of (responsive) images and two gifs FYI, but no images/PDFs.
