Introduction

The "epic-jewels" project is designed to create a sophisticated platform for VINTAGE CAPITAL, based in India, to manage and promote their jewelry investment opportunities. This document outlines the system requirements necessary to develop a robust and user-friendly platform that caters to the needs of investors and administrators alike.

System Overview

The epic-jewels platform will serve as a comprehensive solution for managing jewelry investments, providing users with detailed insights, investment tracking, and communication tools. The system will be designed to handle high volumes of data securely and efficiently, ensuring a seamless experience for all users.

Functional Requirements

• As an Investor, I should be able to view detailed information about available jewelry investment opportunities.
• As an Investor, I should be able to track my investment portfolio and view returns.
• As an Admin, I should be able to manage investment listings and update their details.
• As an Admin, I should be able to communicate with investors through the platform.
• As a Guest, I should be able to browse investment opportunities without logging in.

User Personas

• Investor: Individuals interested in investing in jewelry, requiring access to detailed investment information and portfolio tracking.
• Admin: Personnel responsible for managing investment listings and maintaining communication with investors.
• Guest: Visitors to the platform who can browse investment opportunities without registration.

Signature Design Concept

The epic-jewels platform will feature an interactive "Jewelry Vault" homepage. This concept will present a 3D vault door that users can click to open, revealing a treasure trove of investment opportunities. Each piece of jewelry will be represented as a sparkling gem that users can hover over to see more details. The gems will rotate and glisten using @react-three/fiber for 3D rendering and gsap for smooth animations. This immersive experience will captivate users and encourage exploration of the investment options available.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will employ a "parallax" interaction model, creating a sense of depth as users scroll through layers of content. Decorative elements like floating gems and shimmering effects will move at different speeds to enhance the visual storytelling. Internal pages will adopt a "static" model for clarity and ease of navigation, focusing on data presentation and user interaction.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The platform must ensure data security and privacy for all users.
• The system should support high availability and scalability to handle growing user numbers.
• The platform must be responsive and accessible across various devices and screen sizes.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Python, FastAPI
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB, using Alembic for migrations
• AI Models: GPT 5.4 for user-friendly responses
• AI Tools: Litellm for LLM Routing
• Local Orchestration: Docker, docker-compose
• Server-side Orchestration: Kubernetes

Assumptions and Constraints

• The platform will primarily serve users in India, with currency and timezone settings defaulting to INR and IST.
• The system will comply with local regulations regarding data protection and investment practices.
• The platform will be designed to accommodate future expansions and additional features.
