## What is Cosmos?
Cosmos is an open source Social Media platform. The project aims to provide a dedicated box like platform for it's users where they can have dedicated spaces for their friends, family, work circle, etc. We achieve this by utilizing Boxes. Inside of each box you add users by there email that are relevant to that box. This helps you focus and share content in groups (boxes) where that content would matter the most.

|Cartoon Friends |They help the user get started with the app and provide valuable information in a cute and innovative manner |Error, inactivity or onboarding information might get very boring for the end user at times. Cartoon friends help the user stay involved and pass this required message to the user. |
