Clover

Clover is a very basic social media web app. It is my first major Node.JS project, and as such is fairly rough around the edges.

Features

• Login/sign-up via local authentication as well as Google OAuth.
• Edit user profile (add profile image, change name and email).
• Create and display posts, comments and likes.
• Add (via friend requests) and remove friends.
• Password reset using reset links.
• Chat with other users.

Frameworks and libraries used

• Node.JS
• Express
• MongoDB
• Passport
• EJS
• Bootstrap
• Nodemailer
• Socket.io

Instructions

• Clone repository.\
• Run npm install.\
• Create environment variables using the included .env.example file. (I highly recommend dotenv-flow.)
• Verify directory structure and create missing folders (namely "uploads").

Features I might work on

• 1-to-1 chatting with friends.
• Posting images and videos.
• Authentication via API.
• Reactions like love, haha instead of the good old like.
