In this video, I build and deploy a complete full stack social media website using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js). I start with a clean React project (Vite), set up Tailwind CSS, create the full page structure (Login, Feed, Messages, Chatbox, Connections, Discover, Profile, Create Post), and wire everything with React Router so the app feels like a real product. I also show you the exact UI flow: sign in/sign up, feed with stories and posts, profile editing, discover/search users, follow + send connection requests, and then real-time style chat once the request is accepted. For authentication and user management, I use Clerk because it gives me ready-to-use sign in/sign up components and supports multiple options like email, Google, and even multi-session (so you can add another account and switch without logging out). For background jobs and scheduling, I use Inngest to handle tasks like reminder emails for pending requests or unread messages. And for media uploads (profile pics, cover images, posts, stories, chat images), I use ImageKit because it stores and optimizes images/videos automatically for fast delivery. Finally, after building everything, I deploy the project online for free using Vercel so you can add it to your resume or even submit it as a college project.
