HackerNews is a social media site similar to Reddit and Y Combinator's HackerNews. Users can enjoy all the functionality expected of social media these days such as creating and viewing other users' posts from a convenient website interface.

HackerNews is more than just a website; it is a full-stack app that really consists of many subprojects, including

• a website rendered server-side with ASP.NET MVC
• a desktop app built with Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)
• a REST API backend built with ASP.NET Web API
• a command-line interface (CLI) tool used to interact with the REST API from the console

• secure register and login functionality
• persistence to a database
• ability for users to create, view, update, and delete boards, posts, and comments
• ability for users to upvote, downvote, and save other users' content
• clean and modular solution architecture
• unit and integration tests to ensure functional correctness
