Need to think through Friends portion more thoroughly

[jimmiejackson414-zz]

Should there be a Friends page, where a User can view all of their connections? Should there be a search option to search for existing users and connect with them? If so, should I create a search results page, where you can go through and view profiles and request connections? Definitely gets more into the "social media" side of things, and while it's a cool idea, it's also a hugely complex idea.

Is there an MVP version I could create in the meantime? Say have a Friends page, and an invite button which would remove the complexity from the Friends widget in Planning. On the Friends page, you can invite users and on the backend, it would determine if they are an existing user and a new FriendUser entry can be made, or if they need to be invited to the app.
