What is social network development

A social network is a user-generated-content platform. The hard parts are moderation, load, and privacy, not the like button.

When it fits

  • You have a niche community and a content strategy.
  • You need roles, feeds, chats, or comments.
  • You are ready to support moderation and operations.

When it doesn’t

If you only need a blog or a forum out of the box, a ready-made solution is usually simpler.
