We went the social consumer-facing route in dreaming up “storybooks” that aimed to be a hub for pictures, links, and all media, made easy to share and easy to digest. If you were going on a road trip, or making a guide to your group’s favorite TikToks, you would make a scrapbook-like “storybook” to collaborate and digitize over stories.

Book Creator Interface
We created a beautifully dynamic grid to insert any and all media we could support: images, videos, links, embeds, audio clips, text commentary, widgets, etc. Books were made to be bite-sized but also extensible and shareable.
Shared Component Library
With development on web but also primarily a mobile-first application, we brought component dev as a shared component library to support both platforms continuously, instead of completely separate development. We needed the visual cohesion and shared expected functionality to keep pushing out new features.
