inner-page System Requirements Document

Introduction

The purpose of this document is to outline the system requirements for the "inner-page" project. This project aims to create a simple, single-page design for personal use by Diya Trivedi. The document will detail the functional and non-functional requirements, user personas, core user flows, visual themes, and other relevant aspects to guide the development process.

System Overview

The "inner-page" project is a personal web page designed to provide a simple and elegant user experience. The page will serve as a personal hub for Diya Trivedi, showcasing essential information in a clean and accessible format. The focus is on simplicity and usability, ensuring that the page is easy to navigate and visually appealing.

Functional Requirements

• As a User, I should be able to view my personal information on the page.
• As a User, I should be able to navigate through different sections of the page smoothly.
• As a User, I should be able to access contact information easily.
• As a User, I should be able to view a gallery of personal photos.
• As a User, I should be able to read a brief personal biography.
• As a User, I should be able to see links to my social media profiles.

User Personas

• User: Diya Trivedi, the primary user who will interact with the page to view personal information and share it with others.

Core User Flows

• User opens the page -> views personal information -> navigates to the biography section -> explores the photo gallery -> accesses contact information -> visits social media links.

Visuals Colors and Theme

• primary: #3498db (a calm blue for a professional and clean look)
• primary_light: #85c1e9 (a lighter tint of blue for hover states)
• secondary: #e74c3c (a contrasting coral for emphasis and links)
• accent: #f1c40f (a vibrant yellow for call-to-action buttons)
• highlight: #f39c12 (a warm orange for hover states and notifications)
• bg: #ecf0f1 (a light grey for the page background)
• surface: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.9) (a soft white for card/panel backgrounds)
• text: #2c3e50 (a dark blue for primary text)
• text_muted: #7f8c8d (a muted grey for secondary text)
• border: rgba(44, 62, 80, 0.2) (a subtle border color)

Signature Design Concept

The homepage will feature an interactive "living canvas" design. The background will be a dynamic watercolor effect that subtly changes hues throughout the day, creating a unique and personal ambiance. Users can interact with the canvas by clicking and dragging to reveal hidden elements or messages. This concept will be implemented using framer-motion for smooth animations and gsap for timeline control, ensuring a seamless and engaging experience.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model, providing a layered depth effect as users scroll through the page. Decorative elements will move at different speeds, creating a sense of depth and immersion. This approach is ideal for a visually rich first impression while maintaining a simple and clean layout for personal content.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The page must load within 3 seconds on a standard broadband connection.
• The design should be responsive and accessible on both desktop and mobile devices.
• The page should be optimized for SEO to ensure visibility.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Not applicable for a static single-page design
• Database: Not applicable for a static single-page design

Assumptions and Constraints

• The page is intended for personal use and does not require complex backend functionality.
• The design should prioritize simplicity and ease of use.
• The project will not include e-commerce or user authentication features.

Glossary
