Android Social Networking App Development

My goal is to launch a dedicated Android social-networking application and I’m ready to move from concept to a working build. The app will live only on Android for now, so the entire architecture, UI, and testing flow should be optimized for the latest Android SDK and material design guidelines.

Core expectations
• User onboarding with email or social-login options
• Profile creation/editing, including avatar uploads
• A real-time feed for posts, images, and short videos
• In-app messaging or chat (Firebase or a comparable service is fine)
• Push notifications for follows, messages, and reactions
• Basic admin dashboard or at least clearly documented APIs for moderation

Deliverables
1. Production-ready APK plus signed AAB for Play Store submission
2. Full, well-commented source code (Git preferred)
3. Brief setup/documentation so future devs can configure, build, and deploy in one pass

Acceptance criteria
• App installs and runs smoothly on Android 8.0 through the latest OS version
• All listed features work without critical bugs
• Code passes linting and is organized into clean modules

Feel free to suggest efficient libraries or frameworks that speed up development while keeping the codebase maintainable.
