[#Script #Coding] Create an Instagram Clone with React, Tailwind CSS, Firebase – Tutorial

Posted on by Eric Brooks

Create an Instagram Clone with React, Tailwind CSS, Firebase – Tutorial

By freeCodeCamp.org
Published: Apr 19, 2021

“
freeCodeCamp.org Learn how to create an Instagram clone with React and JavaScript! This project uses React (custom hooks, useContext, useState, useEffect, useRef), Firebase (Firestore/auth), Tailwind CSS, LoadTest, Lighthouse, Vercel, React Testing Library and Cypress E2E Testing.

This React project has multiple pages: login, sign up, dashboard (to view/like/comment on photos), and user profiles. The sign-in page connects to Firebase when a user tries to sign in, and when a user signs up, Firebase auth is used to store the user in the Firebase auth database. After the application is built you will learn how to deploy it to Vercel.

** This is an updated video that streamlines the process for creating an NFT collection. NO CODING IS REQUIRED! **
No coding experience? No problem! We will get you from nothing to an entire collection of 10,000 Unique NFTs in 30 minutes! Let’s get started!

There are a bunch of tutorials on YouTube about how to create NFT collections, but none of them show you the ENTIRE process.

In this video, I’m going to show you how to create an NFT collection and how to MINT them, even if you have ZERO coding knowledge!

In this video, we are going to dive head first into cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and minting. And I don’t expect you to have any prior knowledge of any of this. We are going to go step-by-step through the entire process!

I’m going to explain what blockchain and NFTs are and give you some context and background first. If you’re already familiar with that and you want to go straight to the good stuff, I have chapter markers setup for you, just skip ahead to whatever section you want.
