[digiKam-users] Web based interface (in PHP etc)

[Tac Tacelosky]

To be specific, the relationship issue I had a hard time with was the
association between the image metadata and the image.  Here's my question
on StackExchange:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49322804/optional-related-doctrine-entity-onetoone-relationship/49323307

I think the data would be easier to work with as a bi-directional
relationship.
