Inspiration

I wanted to build something with a Microservices Architecture

What it does

It handles creating users with unique invite codes, signing in, and signing out.

How we built it

We used the Phoenix Framework with the Elixir language to build each service. Since these services communicate over HTTP, we can write more services in any language.

Challenges we ran into

Having so many unique services, setting things up takes a lot of time. We also can't test them together without playing with a lot of configuration files

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This project currently contains seven separate repositories

What we learned

Developing Microservices takes time.

What's next for Microservices Social Network

I'm going to build more services for it.
