About the Project:

Did you know that all people in the world are six or fewer social connections away from each other?

We are aiming to design and implement a social networking web-based system which connects members to communicate thoughts, share context and manage projects in one place across different Dev platforms.

As this project is user centered and front-end based, you will be fast-tracked into modern web technologies such as: JavaScript, React, NodeJS, HTML, and CSS. Your creative side will also shine as you will be creating functional and visual components and prototypes that our users will interact with DAILY!

Come join us! You will be helping to build and develop the social network and accelerate the process of connecting anyone you want to know in the world.
