This is a full stack modern social media app built with Django as the backend, PostgreSQL as the database and Next.js with React, TypeScript and TailwindCSS on the frontend. The backend comprises of necessary API endpoints built with the Django REST framework. The application securely handles user authentication and session management with the help of Simple JWT. The application was built from the start through a seamless Dockerized development workflow where the entire application stack [ Frontend(React), Backend(Django) & Database(Postgres) containers ] can be setup with a single Docker Compose command and ready to work.
