MVP List

The overall goal of the app is to have a social media experience where a user has a chronologically-ordered home-feed of: interactable posts by other users they follow, as well as notifications of interactions users have with their posts. Interactable meaning a user can like, potentially "reblog" (which is to say share onto their follower's feeds), as well as view further details on that post's specific show page, which includes a chronologically-ordered list of all interactions had by anyone with that post.

I.E. a basic version of the tumblr homepage, as well as viewing individual posts.
