Say Hello to "OINKY" - a decentralized social media dApp

In this sample project that I made... I used Rust and Anchor Protocol on the Solana ecosystem.

It's kinda like Twitter but instead of Tweets, users will send messages and content as Oinks! 🐽

See image below

Here's the full details on my ""OINKY"" dApp project...

• Integrated Solana's Phantom wallet
• My users will be able to send oinks same as like tweets (up to 280 characters)
• They can also add an optional "topic" like Arguments which is the main concept of this platform..
  My users can vent out their anger (which is so cool!) 👍

Structure of the "OINKY" dApp

To save up on database cost, I used Solana so that users will pay $SOL everytime they send oinks...
So in other words, my users will be paying for the database cost and not the owner of the dApp (who is me).. 🤡
And besides, this platform is mainly for complains, disputes, etc... so oinks doesn't have to be as plenty compared to tweets

Programming Languages & Tools

I built the frontend with the use of...

• Vue
• TailwindCSS

For testing I used...

• Mocha
• solana-web.js

And on the backend and database, I used some languages and protocol like

• Rust
• Anchor
• ESLint
• Node

This social media dApp is open to everyone...
All they need is to have a Phantom wallet to log-in to this platform...
And voila, everyone can send their oinks

Here's a sample of accessing the OINKY dApp

I didn't go all in on the coding since I am just getting accustomed with Rust, Anchor Protocol, and Solana.
I do have an option though to deploy this on the Solana devnet, airdropping $SOL on my Phantom wallet to test the platform, and also deploy the frontend on Netlify or Vercel.

Disclaimer This repo is for demonstration purposes only. It is not yet complete and it still need to expand features.

Anyone is free to contribute to this dApp.

Let me know your thoughts, because this could be a better solution other than Twitter.

So until then, let's Pig Out 🐽
