Project description:
"I need a full-stack build of a social network where every post lives on an interactive OpenStreetMap canvas. Users choose a spot, drop a pin, and publish text, images, or videos attached to that location. Pins must cluster and declutter smoothly as the map zooms, and users should be able to filter the feed by radius, date, or hashtag. This social network should be able to receive links of other networks and send links of this network to other social networks. This social network should also be able to receive RSS-feeds from other website and publishes those automatically on the social network.

Beyond the public map feed, the product includes private communication: one-to-one and group direct messaging. Messages don’t have to sit on the map, but conversations can reference pins or coordinates for quick context linking.

Core expectations
• Web and mobile responsiveness, ideally one shared codebase (React / React Native or comparable).
• OpenStreetMap rendered with Leaflet, MapLibre, or another OS-friendly library—no Google tiles.
• Post editor that handles text, image, and video uploads (standard size limits, server-side compression for media).
• Scalable back-end (Node, Django, or similar) with real-time sockets for chat and live map updates.
• Secure auth (email or social login), rate-limiting on posts, and GDPR-ready data handling.
• Clear API documentation so future app clients can plug in easily.

Delivery will be staged: interactive prototype, alpha with posting and map browse, beta adding messaging, and a polished production hand-off with deployment scripts and a concise technical readme. I’ll provide UI basic view and branding assets; you bring the geospatial expertise, UI development and clean code." (client-provided description)
