System Requirements
WorkForce_Hub System Requirements Document
1. Introduction
WorkForce_Hub is a modern, production-grade HR Management System (HRMS) designed as a SaaS platform. It aims to provide a seamless experience for managing human resources through a web application with role-based portals for Super Admin, HR, Manager, and Employee. The system will feature both dark and light modes, offering a premium UI feel akin to Linear.app and Rippling.
2. System Overview
WorkForce_Hub is designed to streamline HR processes with a focus on clean role-based access and a smooth user interface. The system will be built using Next.js for the frontend, FastAPI for the backend, and PostgreSQL for data storage, with Redis for caching. Deployment will be managed using Docker Compose, ensuring a scalable and efficient architecture.
3. Functional Requirements

- As a Super Admin, I should be able to create and delete HR and Manager accounts.

4. User Personas
- Super Admin: Oversees the entire system, manages accounts, and configures settings.
- HR: Manages employee lifecycle, payroll, and departmental communications.
- Manager: Oversees team performance, manages tasks, and approves leaves.
- Employee: Engages with personal HR-related tasks and views announcements.
5. Core User Flows
- Super Admin: Logs in -> Manages accounts -> Configures settings -> Views reports
- HR: Logs in -> Manages employees -> Approves leaves -> Runs payroll -> Sends announcements
- Manager: Logs in -> Views team -> Manages tasks -> Approves leaves -> Writes reviews
- Employee: Logs in -> Views profile -> Applies for leave -> Checks tasks -> Views announcements
6. Visuals Colors and Theme
- primary: #6366F1 (indigo)
- primary_light: #A5B4FC
- secondary: #10B981 (emerald)
- accent: #F59E0B (amber)
- highlight: #EF4444 (red)
- bg: #0F0F0F (dark)
- surface: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.8)
- text: #FFFFFF (white)
- text_muted: #9CA3AF (gray)
- border: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2)
7. Signature Design Concept
The homepage of WorkForce_Hub will feature an interactive 3D office environment using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei. Users will navigate through a virtual office space where each portal (Super Admin, HR, Manager, Employee) is represented by a distinct area within the office. As users hover over different sections, they will experience smooth transitions and animations powered by Framer Motion, creating an engaging and immersive experience. Clicking on a section will zoom into that portal, providing a seamless transition into the respective dashboard.
8. Interaction Model & Motion Direction
The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model, offering layered depth via scroll. Decorative layers will translate at different speeds, while real content scrolls naturally. This approach will provide a visually rich first impression, ideal for storytelling and engaging users from the outset. Internal pages will maintain a "static" interaction model to prioritize layout clarity and reading speed.
9. Non-Functional Requirements
- The system must support both dark and light modes.
- The application should be responsive and work seamlessly on mobile devices.
- The system should ensure secure access control using JWT with refresh token rotation.
- The application should handle up to 10,000 concurrent users without performance degradation.
10. Tech Stack
- Frontend: Next.js 14, Tailwind CSS, Shadcn UI, Framer Motion, Recharts, React Hook Form
- Backend: FastAPI (Python)
- Database: PostgreSQL, Redis
- Auth: JWT with refresh token rotation
- Deployment: Docker Compose + Nginx
11. Assumptions and Constraints
- The system will not include third-party integrations at this stage.
- The focus will be on implementing core modules with clean role-based access.
- Deployment will be managed using Docker Compose, ensuring containerized environments.
12. Glossary
- HRMS: Human Resource Management System
- JWT: JSON Web Token
- SaaS: Software as a Service
- UI: User Interface
- UX: User Experience
- API: Application Programming Interface
- CRUD: Create, Read, Update, Delete
