About The Project

It is a web application project that is a social networking site with a knowledge base. It is not supposed to be another Facebook, but a web application designed to gather people interested in a specific field and provide them with functions such as:

  • knowledge base,
  • the ability to create lists and evaluate specialists in this field,
  • a list of proven specialist stores,
  • forum - with moderating options,
  • internal communicator,
  • section with events - information about events related to a given topic,
  • place for legal notes and regulations (portal regulations, GDPR, privacy policy).

Used Technologies

The application has been clearly divided into the backend and frontend parts. The backend is implemented using .NET Core and the frontend is carried out using the React library.
