Earthy-Page System Requirements Document

Introduction

The purpose of this document is to outline the system requirements for the "earthy-page" project, which is a simple, single-page todo application designed for personal use. The application will focus on providing a minimalistic and efficient user experience.

System Overview

The "earthy-page" project is a todo application intended for personal productivity. It will feature a single-page design to ensure simplicity and ease of use. The application will allow users to create, edit, and delete tasks without any additional complexities such as categories or priority levels.

Functional Requirements

• As a User, I should be able to create new tasks.
• As a User, I should be able to edit existing tasks.
• As a User, I should be able to delete tasks.
• As a User, I should be able to view all tasks on a single page.

User Personas

• User: An individual looking to manage personal tasks efficiently using a simple and minimalistic interface.

Visuals Colors and Theme

• primary: #4A7C59 (a calming forest green)
• primary_light: #A3C9A8 (a lighter mint green for hover states)
• secondary: #F4A261 (a warm coral for headlines and emphasis)
• accent: #E76F51 (a vibrant terracotta for CTAs and active states)
• highlight: #FFB703 (a bright amber for notifications and hover states)
• bg: #F1FAEE (a soft, off-white background)
• surface: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8) (a translucent white for cards/panels)
• text: #264653 (a deep teal for primary text)
• text_muted: #8D99AE (a muted gray for secondary text)
• border: rgba(38, 70, 83, 0.2) (a subtle teal border)

Signature Design Concept

The "earthy-page" will feature a unique interactive design concept where the homepage resembles a serene, minimalist desk setup. Users will interact with tasks as if they are sticky notes on a virtual desk. Each task note can be clicked to edit or delete, and dragging a note will rearrange the order of tasks. The background will subtly change hues based on the time of day, providing a dynamic yet calming experience. This will be achieved using framer-motion for smooth animations and transitions.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

• Interaction Model: Animated
• The landing page will feature moderate scroll-triggered reveals and hover transitions. The task notes will have spring physics for interactive dragging and rearranging, providing a polished and engaging user experience.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The application should load quickly and perform efficiently on all modern web browsers.
• The design should be responsive and accessible on both desktop and mobile devices.
• The application should maintain data integrity and prevent data loss during user interactions.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: FastAPI
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB, using Alembic for migrations
• Local Orchestration: Docker, docker-compose

Assumptions and Constraints

• The application will be used primarily in India, so it should consider local timezone settings.
• The design will remain minimalistic without additional features like task categories or priority levels.

Glossary
