Overarching Project

This course includes an overarching project in which you incrementally build a web application, adding new features as the course progresses. The project is themed around ‘Reddit’, the popular social news aggregation and discussion website.

We recommend beginning the overarching project only after completing all other assignments in this part. For deeper learning, it can also help to take a short break of a few days before starting the project.

In the first step, you create a walking skeleton for the overarching project and set up a landing page for the application.

In the second step, you add the functionality for creating, removing, listing, and displaying communities. The communities will be stored in localStorage.

In the third step, you add the functionality for creating, removing, listing, and displaying posts within communities. The posts will also be stored in localStorage.
