Social media app
An in-progress social app focused on profiles, posts, follows, and a cleaner interaction model for a real community product.
Outcomes
In progress
This is an in-progress social media product, framed as a full product system rather than only a feed UI. The core idea is straightforward: users need identity, publishing, discovery, and interaction. The engineering challenge is that each of those primitives creates second-order product questions.
What is a good feed? What deserves a notification? What should be public, private, or limited to a graph edge? What happens when content needs moderation? Those are the questions that make the project interesting.
Product spine
| Area | Product question | Engineering shape |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | Who is speaking? | Profiles, handles, account state, privacy. |
| Social graph | Who is connected? | Follows, blocks, visibility rules. |
| Publishing | What gets shared? | Posts, comments, reactions, media-ready model. |
| Feed | What should appear first? | Ranking inputs, recency, graph signals. |
| Moderation | What keeps it usable? | Reports, review states, admin surfaces. |
Why it belongs in Work
It belongs in Work because a social app exercises the kind of engineering that looks simple until it is real: data modeling, realtime behavior, ranking, notifications, moderation, and product judgment all have to line up.
