Let’s be honest: building another social media app is usually a cliché.

But I wanted to see how far I could push modern web architecture, real-time data streaming, and deployment efficiency without spending a fortune.

The result is Vlox—and it's live right now.

I built everything from scratch. No React, no Next.js, no Express, no heavy state management tools.

Frontend: 100% Vanilla JS powered by NanoScript—my own lightweight, custom jQuery clone for DOM manipulation and event binding.
