Presto is a React single-page web app designed and developed by musicians for musicians. In today's day and age, meeting local musicians should be easy, but until now, there hasn't been a go-to social media space for musicians to connect with other musicians from their communities. Especially today, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, local communities have become more fragmented than ever before.
Presto is designed to provide a space for musical communities to reconnect by enabling guests and musicians to make public posts based on location. Trying to meet a singer? Make a post. Want to talk about the new Kronos Quartet album? Write a post. Tell a little about yourself on your own profile so that others can learn more about you. Then, if you find a musician you'd like to talk to individually, message them privately to connect.
This app is intended for performers, composers, arrangers, conductors, soloists, ensembles, bands, and any guests interested in hiring them or joining the conversation.
Presto is a single-page web app bootstrapped with Create React App and written in TypeScript, It is built to be fast, secure, and intuitive.
