Project Overview

Feedes is a cross-platform social media aggregator developed by Vlinde Transylvania SRL (part of Vlinde GmbH, Germany). The platform unifies content from YouTube, X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, and Reddit into a single, personalized feed — eliminating the need to switch between multiple apps and tabs.

My Contribution

As a freelance developer, I played a significant role in building and refining the platform's backend systems:

• Data Integration Pipeline:
  Designed and implemented the ingestion layer responsible for pulling content from all five social media platforms — including posts, images, short-form videos, and user comments.
• Cron Job Architecture:
  Organized and optimized the scheduled task system to ensure reliable, periodic data synchronization across all connected platforms without overloading API rate limits.
• Media Import System:
  Built the pipeline for importing and processing visual content — handling video files (smaller formats), images, and threaded comment structures from each platform's unique data format.

Key Platform Features

• Unified Feed:
  Users follow creators and topics across YouTube, X, Facebook, Instagram, and Reddit — all rendered in a single, chronological timeline.
• AI-Powered Summarization:
  Built-in AI generates concise summaries of long-form content and aggregates comment sentiment, helping users consume information faster.

Tech Stack & Tools

• Backend: Laravel (PHP)
• Frontend: Vue.js
• AI-Assisted Development: Claude Opus 4.6 as coding copilot, accelerating feature development and problem-solving across the full stack.

This project showcases my ability to work within an existing product team, integrate complex third-party APIs at scale, and leverage modern AI tools in the development workflow.
