Fun highly customizable mini profiles for everyone :3
This project is a social network of profiles with plenty of customization options to make each one unique, sort of a modern equivalent to MySpace, or a mix of bento.me and a blog.
Users will be able to set up a profile using a theme editor, add widgets, befriend other users, send posts, and more.
This doesn't aim to replace any existing social media, just to have a fun and creative platform where people can show off their personality!
If you're interested in the project, consider following updates more visually via Bluesky, Twitter or Discord.
Islands is still in development and will be released in multiple stages. The following is a rough roadmap of the features I plan to implement (subject to change).
An invite-only release where only I issue invite codes. It will be a way for close relatives to test the base features. No account will be required to view profiles. Expected features:
- Authentication (Login, Register, Logout)
- Friends1
- Some default widgets
- Profile theming
- Notifications
- Barebones mobile version
Every user will be able to issue codes to invite more people to the app. Expected features:
- Barebones posts & replies
- Profile comments
- Barebones profile search
- All planned default widgets
- Barebones user & privacy settings
A release where anyone can #, without an invite code. Expected features:
- Onboarding
- Post & profile feed
- Virtual currency & badges
- Advanced post features
- Custom widget API
This release should not include more features, but the interface should be refined and most issues should be addressed.
