JourneyLens

I created this full-stack app, for people to showcase their travels around the world. Users can simply log in and go onto their profile to create a new post to show their friends what they've been up to and how their vacation is going.

About

JourneyLens is a social media website that aims to connect people from around the world. It allows friends and families to share their adventures and travels with everyone. We're excited to build a community based on travel and adventuring beyond the norms.

Tools used

Since this project is a full-stack application, I really needed to make sure the tech stack was solid. For that reason, I decided on the acclaimed MERN stack, along with some others, to help round everything out. For the front-end portion, I used:

• Next.js
• React
• DaisyUI
• jQuery
• mapbox-gl
• TailWindCSS
• YUP verification

For the back-end, I went with:

• MongoDB
• Express.js
• Node
• BcryptJS
• Body-Parser
• Mongoose
• Nodemon
• Multer

To host the site, I used two services: Heroku for the back-end and Netlify for the front-end

Features currently under construction:

• Map Viewer: Allows users to see the location where the picture was taken on a map.
• Improved Security: Security is always a priority, and I work every day to reduce attack surfaces and fortify the servers.
• Graphic Design: Enhancing the appearance and user experience overall.
