Microfeed

Microfeed is a microservices-based social feed application built with Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, and Nginx as an API gateway.
Each microservice manages its own database, ensuring scalability, modularity, and fault isolation.

🚀 Features

• Authentication Service — Manages user registration and login.
• User Profile Service — Handles user profile creation, updates, and retrieval.
• Post Service — Allows users to create, update, and fetch posts.
• RabbitMQ — Enables asynchronous communication between microservices.
• Nginx API Gateway — Routes incoming HTTP requests to the appropriate microservice.
• Dedicated PostgreSQL Database per Service — Ensures strong separation of concerns.
