About the Website

Welcome to Beak to Basics. This is a solo development project built entirely in React. This originally was intended to be a way for me to learn more about React and to learn more about Birds.


Some of the main features of this project are as follows: the Birds page, which allows users to browse and upload to a catalog of birds, the Photos page, which allows users to look through a gallery of photos of birds, the Bird Chat page, which allows users to create a post to start a discussion about various bird-related topics. These are just the base features, and there is much more to discover.


I have lots more planned for this project, but this is currently the first version. I hope to add more features that improve the user experience and make this site more accessible to the public.
