A social network. Each user has a profile with username, display name, bio, avatar.

Users can follow other users. The home feed shows recent posts from followed users, newest first. A "Discover" tab shows trending posts from everyone.

Posts have body (text + optional image), likes (count + list of likers), and comments. Reactions limited to a heart for now.
