Signature Design Concept

The Traviffy homepage will feature an interactive 3D globe that users can rotate and zoom into to explore different travel destinations. As users interact with the globe, destination highlights will appear, offering quick access to booking options. This immersive experience will be powered by @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei, providing a dynamic and engaging entry point to the platform.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model, creating a sense of depth as users scroll through the content. Layers of travel-related imagery will move at different speeds, enhancing the storytelling aspect of the platform. Internal pages will adopt a "static" model to prioritize clarity and ease of navigation.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The system must support high concurrency to handle peak booking times.
• Data security and user privacy must be ensured through encryption and secure access controls.
• The platform should be optimized for both desktop and mobile devices.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Python with FastAPI
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB, using Alembic for migrations
• Local Orchestration: Docker and docker-compose
• Server-side Orchestration: Kubernetes

Assumptions and Constraints
