Project Description

Overview

The Project Manager you work with wants to build a new product, a new social media application called Posterr. Posterr is very similar to Twitter, but it has far fewer features.

Posterr only has two pages, the homepage, and the user profile page, which are described below. Other data and actions are also detailed below.

Pages

Homepage

• The homepage, by default, will show a feed of posts (including reposts and quote posts), starting with the latest 10 posts. Older posts are loaded on-demand on chunks of 10 posts whenever the user scrolling reaches the bottom of the page.
• There is a toggle switch "All / Only mine" that allows you to switch between seeing all posts and just posts you wrote. For both views, all kinds of posts are expected on the feed (original posts, reposts, and quote posts).
• There is a date range filter option (start date and end date) that allows results filtering based on the posted date, both values are optional: e.g user may want to filter only posts after a certain date without defining a limit date.
• New posts can be written from this page.

User profile page

• Shows data about the user:
  • Username
  • Date joined Posterr, formatted as such: "March 25, 2021"
  • Count of number of posts the user has made (including reposts and quote posts)
• Shows a feed of the posts the user has made (including reposts and quote posts), starting with the latest 5 posts. Older posts are loaded on-demand when the user clicks on a button at the bottom of the page labeled "show more".
• New posts can be written from this page: for this assessment, when writing a post from the profile screen, the profile user should be set as the author of the new content.
