TODOs

Functionality

• Currently to keep things simple, the app only supports a single album creation and all photos are added to that album, ideally it should be able to create multiple albums and pick an album when adding the photo
• In its current state photos can be removed from the album from the main page, but not from the album. removing photo from the album had some bugs, so i disabled it for now.
• Create album is very basic and only takes a name, should allow description, adding location, tags to an album
• Allow album management - delete album, edit album name etc
• Allow sorting of photos by date, relevance etc.
• Add pagination / load more of ability to scroll infinitely.

Code

• Bug - Added to album state not retained on route changes.
• Add proptypes to props
• Add tests - unit and end to end
• Refactor to eliminate some duplicate code and combine into a single component.
• Refactor containers to move some presentational elements to components.
