Joonapp PWA

A Facebook-style social network built with Django — sign up, post, react and comment — installable as a progressive web app.

Joonapp is a small social network I built from scratch with Django: user accounts, posts, reactions, comments and profiles — the whole loop. It is also a progressive web app, so you can install it to your home screen and it keeps working with a flaky connection.

What I learned building it

  • Django’s auth system and how to extend the user model safely
  • Designing a relational schema for posts, reactions and threaded comments
  • Service workers and the PWA install flow, including an APK wrapper for Android

This was the project that took me from “I can make pages” to “I can make products”.
