Live application: www.cali.cool

Cali.cool is a photo sharing app for Californians by Californians, a visual platform for sharing the California experience. The collection of photographs is open for public viewing, but requires a user login to share photos, as well as to like and comment on photos and albums.

As a Californian, I want to upload photos to a California-oriented photo app so that I can share photos which express life in California with other residents.

As creators of Cali.cool, we want a platform that is welcoming and encouraging to all those who love and want to share their experiences in and of California.
