An open source social media that does not use your data against you
Earlier this year I picked up GraphQL and for a few months I was thinking about making a simple chat app or something with GraphQL then kinda forgot about it due to other projects.
Recently I was getting a lot into System Design and scalability stuff so I thought about implementing the classic "Instagram Clone" template but then immediately thought about the chat app I wanted to do so why not combine it and make it functional?
Hence, I decided to design and implement Proximity an open-source social media as a hobby project in my free time
I decided to open source it because newcomers to React Native might find it helpful
PS. UI is Heavily inspired by Instagram as I'm not a designer 🤪, The code is not perfect but I'm still improving it 😄
Please leave a ⭐ as motivation if you liked the idea 😄

📎 Notes: I used this Boilerplate which is also maintained by me, it is very scalable, try it out for your next project 😄
Also, If you're interested in how I implemented the system design then feel free to reach out to me on twitter or instagram (i'm most active there), tho I am thinking of writing articles for it.
