Pinterest Clone Built Using ReactJS And GraphQL
Pinterest Clone
About The Project
There are many good ideas of projects used with the main purpose of learning a technology. A good side project is always one that isn’t too complicated, but allows you to learn the basic syntax of the technologies used and a bit of how to structure an application with those technologies. A Pinterest Clone is a good example of that. In this project you will practice tha basics of creating a GraphQL API (CRUD, Project Structure, Best Practices…).
Here Are Some Features In the Project:
- Users can login to their account with a simple email / password login.
- Users can create new posts to their wall.
- A post will contain an image, a description, and a title.
- Users can delete their posts.
- Users can save other peoples posts.
- A wall with the posts from every user.
Technologies Used:
- ReactJS
- NodeJS
- GraphQL
- Apollo Client
- Any database you want (MongoDB recommended)
- Cloudinary (for storing pictures)
Note: All the services above are free to use
Starter Code:
The code provided already sets up the client and the server. The GraphQL setup is done and one type is already created (the user type). Use the starter code provides a good start to the project, but you will need to do a lot on your own. If you are wondering how to structure the project, I put some pictures of mine Pinterest clone down below.
