🐕 WUPHF! - The Ultimate Social Networking Experience

Welcome to WUPHF!, the revolutionary social networking platform envisioned by Ryan Howard from The Office! This monorepo contains three .NET applications that bring Ryan's ambitious dream to life.

"Facebook, Twitter, SMS, Email, Chat, and even prints to the nearest printer!" - Ryan Howard

🚀 Project Overview

This monorepo implements WUPHF using modern .NET 10 technology with three interconnected applications:

Features:

• Send messages to multiple channels simultaneously
• View WUPHF history
• Cross-platform support (iOS, Android, Windows, macOS)
• Ryan Howard-themed UI with Office references

🌐 WUPHF.Web (Blazor App)

A modern web frontend built with Blazor Server that provides the full WUPHF experience in a browser.

Features:

• Responsive web interface
• Real-time message sending
• Message history with filtering
• About page with Ryan Howard's vision
• Bootstrap-powered UI with custom WUPHF styling

⚡ WUPHF.Api (Web API)

A robust backend API built with ASP.NET Core that handles all WUPHF operations and channel integrations.

Features:

• RESTful API endpoints
• Multi-channel message delivery simulation
• Message history management
