My Portfolio Project

My portfolio project (title undecided) is a web app that allows users to upload their own photographs and writing to their personal page.

Audience

Anyone who would like to create their own cultivated page of content without the likes, followers, and pressure that social media brings. Content can include images, aesthetic colors, paragraphs, or even links to things they like. This web page could be used as a personal page or even a portfolio of projects. ​

Experience

A user opens the web app and they see a welcome page where they can create their own account. They can then navigate to their own personal page where they can upload images or create text snippets which can be posted.
