# InstaBytes

## 🚀 Overview

InstaBytes is a backend service built using Node.js that powers a dynamic content-sharing platform. It handles uploads, processing and routing of media, enabling a smooth experience for users to share bite-size moments.

## 🧩 Features

* RESTful API endpoints for user authentication, media uploads and feed retrieval
* File upload handling (images/videos) and storage management
* Routing logic to serve user feeds, following relationships and media streams
* Modular architecture (services / controller / routes) for scalability and maintainability
* Simple shell script automation for service setup (`services.sh`)

## 🛠️ Tech Stack

* **JavaScript** (Node.js) — main runtime
* HTTP server implemented in `server.js`
* Dependency management via `package.json` / `package-lock.json`
* Shell scripting for service utilities (`services.sh`)
* File system storage for uploads (folder `uploads/`)
* Modular code structure (folder `src/`)

## 📦 Getting Started

1. Clone the repository

```bash
   git clone https://github.com/your-username/InstaBytes.git
   cd InstaBytes
   ```
2. Install dependencies

```bash
   npm install
   ```
3. Configure any environment variables as needed (e.g., port, storage path)
4. Start the server

```bash
   npm start
   ```

```bash
   node server.js
   ```
5. Access the API at `http://localhost:<PORT>` (default as configured)
6. Use endpoints for authentication, uploads and feed retrieval (refer to API documentation / comments in code)
