• Photo Posting: Users can upload photos with captions and tags, which will be displayed on their own profile and shared with followers.
• Following Timeline: Users can view posts from the accounts they follow. Recommended Timeline: Posts from users with similar preferences or relevant tags are recommended to users.
• Post Detail View: Clicking on a photo in the timeline takes the user to a detailed view of the post, where they can see the caption, tags, and the option to follow/unfollow the author.
• Responsive Design: The web application is designed to be responsive, ensuring a smooth experience on both desktop and mobile.
