I built Phacebook! It is a Facebook clone, that includes much of the core Facebook user functionality such as users, profiles, “friending”, posts, uploading images via ActiveStorage, activity feed, and “liking”. I also implemented sign-in with the real Facebook by using OmniAuth and Devise. I used Amazon's S3 as my cloud storage solution and the production email settings are configured for Gmail. I used Bulma to create a responsive design for all devices (see screenshots below).

You can sign in using email: coolguy@email.com password: password if you don't want to make an account. Besides, all data is deleted and populated with mock data every 24 hours via rake db:seed through Heroku's Scheduler.
