 Abstract

➢ Kwikthought is a microblogging platform designed to replicate the core

features and functionalities of Twitter while offering an enhanced and
customizable user experience. This platform provides users with the

opinions, and updates with a global audience. The following abstract
outlines the key components and features of kwikthought, emphasizing its
user-centric design and innovative elements.

➢ This web application aims to provide users with a familiar and engaging
social media experience, allowing them to share short messages (tweets),
follow other users, engage in conversations, and discover trending topics.

1.1. overview of project

➢ User Registration and Authentication:

Users can create accounts using their email addresses or social media
accounts.
The authentication process ensures secure access to the platform, protecting
user data.
➢ User Profiles:
Each user has a profile page displaying their username, profile picture, bio, and
tweets.
Users can customize their profiles by uploading profile pictures and adding
personal information.
➢ Tweets:
Users can compose and post tweets with a character limit (e.g., 280
characters) just like Twitter.
Tweets are displayed on users' timelines and can include text, images, links,
and hashtags.
➢ Following and Followers:
Users can follow other users to see their tweets on their timelines.
Followers receive notifications about the tweets and activity of the users they
follow.
 ➢ Timelines:
The main feed displays a timeline of tweets from users that a person is
following.
Users can also view their own tweets on their profile.
➢ Engagement Features:
Users can like (heart icon), retweet (share icon), and comment on tweets.
Engagement metrics such as the number of likes and retweets are displayed.
➢ Hashtags:
Users can include hashtags in their tweets, making it easier to discover and
follow trending topics.
Clicking a hashtag leads to a timeline of tweets related to that topic.
➢ Notifications:
Users receive notifications for new followers, likes, retweets, and mentions.
The notifications system enhances user engagement and interaction.
➢ Search and Discover:
Users can search for other users, hashtags, and specific tweets.

Vue.js.
Backend: A server-side language (e.g., Node.js, Python), a web framework (e.g.,
Express, Django), and a database system (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB).
Real-time features like notifications may use technologies like WebSockets.
 ➢ Scalability and Security:
The system must be designed to handle a growing user base and data while
ensuring data security and user privacy.

➢ Monetization:
Future options for revenue generation can include ads, premium features, or
subscription models.
