Social media platforms are now an essential component of contemporary life, enabling worldwide networking, communication, and information sharing. The creation and assessment of a social media application constructed with the MERN stack—MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js—is shown in this research paper. This study's main goal is to investigate the MERN stack's potential for creating a feature-rich, scalable social media platform. A thorough analysis of the body of research on social media applications, the creation of the MERN stack, and pertinent frameworks and libraries is part of the process. The architecture, database schema, and front-end and back-end implementations are all included in the system design. User testing and performance analysis are used to assess the characteristics of the programme, taking into account variables like response time and scalability. The outcomes show how a social media application with essential functions including post generation, profile administration, user authentication, and interaction elements was implemented successfully. The talk focuses on the lessons learned during the development process, the difficulties faced, and how well the application performs in comparison to other platforms. This study advances knowledge on MERN stack development for social media apps and offers insightful information to researchers and developers working in the industry. The application's limitations are recognized, and suggestions for future development are given to improve its functionality and overall performance even more.
