Netbor is a Social Networking app that sorts other users by distance from you. The idea behind this app is that your best friend can be in your neighborhood, but you have never met them, because who goes door-to-door interviewing every person in their city? (maybe you do because you're awesome!). For the rest of us, this app is to help meet the people nearby you... It could be a friend, a plumber, or future romance... who knows?.. The app is for everyone. Netbor is for now, free, and we don't sell your data. We hope we can depend on the community to keep it up, We will be asking users for donations, once the payment feature has been activated.
Users can add hashtags to their biographies to make keywords searchable to other users.
For example: I love hiking. So, in my biography I might write " I love #hiking" and also write "#hike" somewhere else in my biography to be extra searchable. Now, lets say onther user is looking for someone else that likes hiking. That other users can now search "hiking" or "hike" and a list of people sorted by distance will appear who's profiles contain the words "hiking"/"hike".
Netbor is written in Flutter (Dart) an early demo version of the app can be found in my Git Repository
