Book Friends is an app to help you find and meet people who love YOUR favorite books.
- Add your top-ten favorite books to your list.
- Get matched with folks who have also chosen some of your favorites.
- Say hello and connect (if you both choose to do so) via private message. Meet in other social media or in-person.
- Optionally: list deal-breaker books (if deal-breakers appear on someone's favorite list you won't be matched) to cut down on trolls or other potentially unsafe folks.
- That's it!
Book Friends was built as my personal capstone project for www.bloc.io web development boot-camp using Node.js, HTML5, CSS (Twitter Bootstrap), Express, Sequelize, Postgres, and Jasmine testing.
It is (in progress &) hosted by Heroku at https://jennjwill-book-friends.herokuapp.com/ .
The idea for Book Friends was not mine. I give credit and thanks to 'the library haunter,' aka @SketchesbyBoze and their twitter followers who interacted with the following original tweet: https://twitter.com/SketchesbyBoze/status/1100196264740864005?s=19.
