System Requirements Document (SRD)

Project Name: hardy-follower

1. Introduction

The hardy-follower project is designed to provide a robust system for managing and tracking followers effectively. This document outlines the system requirements, functional specifications, and design concepts to ensure the successful implementation of the project.

As requested by Krishan Singh from Malaysia (MY), the system will incorporate locale-specific defaults such as MYR currency, MY timezone (Malaysia Time, GMT+8), and cultural preferences where applicable.

2. System Overview

The hardy-follower system aims to simplify the process of follower management by providing tools for tracking, analyzing, and engaging with followers. The system will cater to various user personas, including admins, users, and guests, ensuring a seamless experience across all roles.

The platform will be scalable, user-friendly, and visually appealing, with a focus on delivering high performance and reliability.

3. Functional Requirements

• As User, I should be able to view my followers list.
• As User, I should be able to search for specific followers.
• As Admin, I should be able to manage user accounts and their follower data.
• As Admin, I should be able to generate reports on follower trends.
• As Guest, I should be able to explore public profiles and their follower counts.

4. User Personas

Admin

• Responsible for managing the system, user accounts, and data integrity.
• Can generate analytics and reports for follower trends.

User

• Registered members who can view and manage their followers.
• Can search for specific followers and interact with them.

Guest

• Unregistered visitors who can explore public profiles and view follower counts.

5. Visuals Colors and Theme

The hardy-follower system will adopt a modern and clean aesthetic with the following color palette:

• Primary Color: Deep Blue (#003366) for trust and professionalism.
• Secondary Color: Vibrant Orange (#FF6600) for energy and engagement.
• Accent Color: Soft Gray (#F2F2F2) for neutral backgrounds and readability.
• Highlight Color: Emerald Green (#33CC99) for success indicators and actionable items.

The theme will emphasize simplicity and clarity, ensuring users can navigate the system effortlessly.

6. Signature Design Concept

Interactive Galaxy Map for Followers

The homepage will feature an interactive galaxy map, where each star represents a follower. Users can zoom in and out to explore their "follower universe."

Key Features:

• Dynamic Animations: Stars will twinkle and shift subtly to create a sense of movement and life.
• Hover Interactions: Hovering over a star will display the follower's profile summary, including name, location, and engagement stats.
• Color Coding: Stars will be color-coded based on engagement levels (e.g., green for highly engaged followers, orange for moderately engaged, and gray for inactive).
• Search Functionality: Users can type a follower's name in the search bar, and the galaxy map will highlight the corresponding star.
• Background Transitions: The galaxy background will shift colors based on the time of day (e.g., deep blue at night, soft orange at sunrise).

This concept will make the hardy-follower system unforgettable, offering users a visually stunning and interactive way to engage with their followers.

7. Non-Functional Requirements

• Performance: The system should load the galaxy map within 2 seconds for optimal user experience.
• Scalability: The platform must support up to 1 million followers per user without performance degradation.
• Security: Implement robust authentication and data encryption to protect user data.
• Localization: Support for MY locale, including MYR currency and GMT+8 timezone.

8. Tech Stack

Frontend

• React for Web

Backend

• Python
• FastAPI

Database

• MySQL (preferred) or MariaDB with Alembic for migrations

AI Models

• GPT 5.2 for user-friendly responses

AI Tools

9. Assumptions and Constraints

• The system assumes users have stable internet connections for optimal performance.
• The galaxy map visualization may require modern browsers with WebGL support.
• The platform will prioritize MY locale settings but can be expanded to support additional locales in the future.

10. Glossary

• Follower: A person who subscribes to updates or interacts with a user's profile.
• Galaxy Map: A visual representation of followers as stars in a dynamic, interactive space.
• MYR: Malaysian Ringgit, the currency of Malaysia.
• GMT+8: Malaysia Time Zone.
• WebGL: A JavaScript API for rendering interactive 2D and 3D graphics within web browsers.
