Use a Recommendation Algorithm to manage the content Display

Dear all,

I would like to know if it’s possible to use a Recommendation Algorithm in order to manage the Content display (like Instagram & co)?

If yes, how can I manage it with Glide?

“Recommendation Algorithm” sounds a bit vague to me. What exact logic do you want to integrate into your app? As long as you can work out the logic and have the right statistics tracked, I think you can do it.

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback. When I speak about "Recommendation Algorithm” then I mention the same functioning of Instagram, or TikTok or an equivalent.

Like a user I would like to get the best content based on my pref.

Thanks,
A.

You have to gather lots of data from visits to your App… create a JavaScript to run and rank views… match it with visitor info… and then return suggestions… very simple… LOL

Hello Adrien, welcome to Glide’s community forum and happy new year.

If your question is “Does Glide have a recommendation algorithm built in the platform that I can leverage to personalize what content is to be displayed”, then I would say no, such a recommendation algorithm is not available.

I would agree with Thinh, perhaps a rudimentary recommendation algorithm could be built. My question would be “Is it worth attempting?”. With enough time and mastery you can build very advanced features on Glide, features that even the Glide team would be surprised to see built with their product. But it doesn’t mean that you can that you should.
