frontend-app-profile

This is a micro-frontend application responsible for the display and updating of user profiles. Please tag @edx/arch-fed on any PRs or issues.

When a user views their own profile, they're given fields to edit their full name, location, primary spoken language, education, social links, and bio. Each field also has a dropdown to select the visibility of that field - i.e., whether it can be viewed by other learners.

When a user views someone else's profile, they see all those fields that that user set as public.
