Instagram Clone - React Native and Firebase

Hey there! Welcome to my project showcase for an Instagram-like clone that I developed using React Native and Firebase. This app replicates some of the core functionalities of Instagram, offering a basic but functional social media experience. While it doesn't encompass all the features of the original Instagram, it includes the essential ones to give you a taste of a social media app.

Why I Built This: I created this project as part of my journey to enhance my skills in React Native and Firebase. By building this app, I aimed to get hands-on experience with mobile app development and understand the integration of real-time database functionalities.

Key Features:

  • User Authentication: Sign up and log in using Firebase authentication.
  • Post Photos: Upload and share photos with the community.

  • View Feeds: Scroll through a feed of posts from other users.
  • Like and Comment: Interact with posts by liking and commenting.

Learning Outcomes: Working on this project helped me solidify my understanding of React Native for building mobile applications and Firebase for backend services. It was a great opportunity to dive into mobile app development and explore real-time database integration.
