Paint Clothes

Introduction

The "Paint Clothes" project aims to create a custom website for White boy E's painting clothes business. This website will focus on showcasing artistic skills and providing a platform for clients to book custom painting services on their clothing. The site will include a gallery of past work, a booking system, and a contact page to facilitate client engagement and service requests.

System Overview

The "Paint Clothes" website will serve as an online presence for White boy E's painting clothes business. It will highlight the unique service of custom painting on clothes, allowing users to view past work, book services, and contact the business directly. The website will be designed to attract creative customers interested in personalized clothing art.

Functional Requirements

• As a User, I should be able to view a gallery of past painted clothes to understand the artistic style.
• As a User, I should be able to book a painting service directly through the website.
• As a User, I should be able to contact the business via a contact page for inquiries or custom requests.

User Personas

• User: Individuals interested in custom-painted clothing, seeking to book services or view artistic styles.
• Admin: White boy E, managing the gallery, booking system, and client communications.

Signature Design Concept

The homepage will feature an interactive canvas where users can "paint" digitally. Using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei, the canvas will allow users to select colors and brush types to simulate painting. As users "paint," the background will dynamically change, showcasing different clothing items being painted in real-time. This interactive feature will engage users and provide a unique experience that mirrors the custom painting service offered by the business.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The intended interaction model for the landing page is "parallax." The homepage will feature layered depth via scroll, with decorative elements like paint splashes and brushes moving at different speeds. Real content will scroll naturally, providing a visually rich first impression. Internal pages such as the gallery and booking system will use a "static" model for clarity and ease of use.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The website should load within 3 seconds on a standard broadband connection.
• The booking system must handle up to 100 concurrent users without performance degradation.
• The gallery should support high-resolution images without significant loading delays.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Python, FastAPI
• Database: MySQL, using Alembic for migrations
• AI Models: Not applicable
• Local Orchestration: Docker, docker-compose
• Server-side Orchestration: Kubernetes
