Android Social Media App Development

I have an idea for a fresh social-media experience and I want to see it come to life on Android first. I’m looking for someone who can guide the project from concept through a functional prototype, covering both the front-end interface and the basic back-end services.

Key tasks I’d like you to handle:
• Translate my rough concept into clear user flows and wireframes.
• Build clean, responsive Android screens using modern UI guidelines (Material Design).
• Set up a lightweight back-end (Firebase or a similar cloud solution) for user auth, posts, and real-time updates.
• Implement core social features: profile creation, photo/video posting, likes, and a simple feed.
• Package the project so I can test it on physical devices and submit feedback.

I’m open to your suggestions on tech stack, libraries, and best practices that keep the codebase maintainable. Communication is important to me, so please be comfortable sharing progress demos and asking clarifying questions. If this initial Android build goes well, there’s room to expand the app’s feature set—and possibly move to iOS later.
