TopicSphere is a platform designed to manage and explore topics of interest, featuring both a backend service and a frontend interface. The project leverages the functionality of two repositories to provide a complete solution for topic management:

The repository is organized into two primary components:

• LIREDDIT-SERVER: Contains the backend code, including API endpoints and data management logic.
• lireddit-web: Contains the frontend code, providing the user interface and interaction with the backend services.

• API Endpoints: Handles CRUD operations for topics.
• Data Management: Manages storage and retrieval of topic-related data.
• User Authentication: Supports user registration and login.
• Real-Time Updates: Provides real-time updates to the frontend.

• Dynamic User Interface: Interactive UI for exploring and managing topics.
• Real-Time Data Display: Updates reflect changes from the backend instantly.
• Responsive Design: Accessible and functional across various devices and screen sizes.

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/mdafraz/SocialNexus-server.git

2. Navigate to the backend directory:

   cd SocialNexus-server

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install

4. Create a .env file in the root directory and add necessary environment variables (refer to .env.example for required variables).

5. Start the backend server:

   npm start

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/mdafraz/SocialNexus-web.git

2. Navigate to the frontend directory:

   cd SocialNexus-web

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install

4. Start the frontend application:

   npm start

Once both the backend and frontend are running, access the application:

• Frontend: http://localhost:3000
• Backend API: http://localhost:5000

The project is currently in development. The following features are implemented:

• Backend services for managing topics and user authentication.
• Frontend interface for interacting with the backend and displaying topic data.

• Backend: Improved API functionality, additional endpoints, and more robust error handling.
• Frontend: Enhanced user interface features, improved responsiveness, and more interactive elements.
