# the-boom

> the-boom is the living guest book of your group: the playlist, the photos and the words of your event, kept forever and reawakened on the day of your reunion. A free web app (PWA, nothing to install) to organize any private event — party, class/school reunion, bachelor or bachelorette party (EVG/EVJF), wedding, team event — and keep its collective memory for life.

the-boom was born from a real need: keeping the memory of a group that was about to scatter. It is an independent, bootstrapped project. Free up to 10 participants; a one-time €29 Pro unlocks unlimited participants for one event, kept for life (no subscription).
