What we built: Social app for iOS and Android, API with payments, admin panel.
Platform: Flutter app, NestJS and MongoDB API with payment webhooks, Next.js admin.

In short

My Places is a social network with the usual pieces done properly: find friends, follow and accept requests, create groups and add people, post, and chat with request gating. Subscriptions and coupons are built into the API with payment webhooks, and an admin handles reports and content.

The brief

The hard part of a social app is everything around the post.

Requests, follows, groups, blocking and reporting are what make a network usable. They had to be complete before launch, not after.
