UBrew is an app that allows homebrewers to connect with each other and share brewing recipes. Users can upload photos and recipes of their favorite brews. They can search for and save new brews to their rotation and can follow other brewers on the app. UBrew makes clever use of React/Redux to provide a robust user experience without relying on 3rd party packages or API's.
