Family Tree

Interactive Family Archive Platform

My roleSole engineer — Python graph engine, FastAPI backend, and React frontend.

The Problem

Traditional genealogy tools are cold and clinical. This platform makes family history feel alive — searchable, visual, and shareable across generations.

The Solution

A modern digital archive for the Burris family designed to feel like a social platform, not a genealogy database. Features a Python/FastAPI backend with a graph-based relationship engine, social memory feed, and visual family tree.

Features

Member profiles with relationship finder
Social-style memory feed with likes and categories
Visual family tree grouped by generation
Python BFS graph engine for computing exact relationships
Photo gallery with lightbox and filters
Family document vault (recipes, legal docs, etc.)
Chronological family timeline by decade
