SocialNetwork / BATCH_001

Protocol_Brief

Challenge

I wanted to understand how to build a secure, real-time platform that doesn't sacrifice performance as it grows.

Solution

Implemented a decoupled architecture where .NET handles the heavy lifting and Angular provides a responsive UI.

“I built SocialNetwork to understand how large-scale social platforms handle state and security. This was my 'proving ground' for mastering the Repository pattern, Unit of Work, and real-time synchronization with SignalR. It taught me how to bridge a strictly-typed C# backend with a reactive Angular frontend while maintaining high performance and secure JWT-based authentication.”

Learned to architect a scalable API using the Repository and Unit of Work patterns.
Explored real-time bi-directional communication using SignalR web sockets.
Deep-dived into ASP.NET Core Identity for secure, token-based authentication.
Mastered reactive state management in Angular for a fluid, 'single-page' feel.
