Roami is a visually-driven web application that takes inspiration from Pinterest, allowing users to share, upload, and embed images seamlessly. I built this with React and Django. Blending aesthetics and functionality, tailored to meet a client's unique vision.

For those curious to explore, I've hosted a live demo on Vercel: Check it out here.

User Authentication: Includes both traditional user authentication and Google OAuth for quick access.

Image Management: Effortlessly upload, share, and embed images, with intuitive user interactions.

Social Connectivity: Users can follow others, creating a personalized feed and community feel.

Monetization Support: Integrated PayPal donations, enabling users to support content creators directly.

Backend: I built the backend with Django, along with DRF framework for creating a REST API.

Frontend: The frontend is built with React, and offers a responsive and dynamic user experience.

Database: I used PostgreSQL for its powerful features and ease of use.

Cloud Services and Hosting: The project was originally deployed on AWS. I also deployed a demo version on Vercel.

Sign up via either an email/password, or Google OAuth for more convenience. Create a profile on the website and start posting content. You can add your location, interests, and even your PayPal donations link to monetize your account. Users will be able to support you for the content you post by donating directly to your PayPal.

Roami is an image-sharing application, where you connect a group of photos you upload, to a particular location. Here you can see the UI for creating your pins.

Mark your pin with a location.

Add tags to your pins for easier grouping.

Upload up to 6 images.

You'll see all your created pins in your Profile. Your followers will also see the pins they follow. They can view your pins and like, share, and review them.

You can also preview your pin before saving changes, so you can see the new changes without any consequences.

It has been an amazing experience working on this project. I learned a lot along the way, and I delivered a beautiful and functional product that made my client happy.
