Sky-Project System Requirements Document

Introduction

The Sky-Project aims to develop a simple, single-page calculator application with a minimalistic design. The focus is on providing users with a seamless and distraction-free experience for performing basic arithmetic operations.

System Overview

The Sky-Project will deliver a web-based calculator application that emphasizes simplicity and ease of use. The application will be accessible on various devices and browsers, ensuring a consistent user experience across platforms. The design will be minimalistic, focusing on essential arithmetic functions without additional complexities.

Functional Requirements

• As a User, I should be able to perform basic arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
• As a User, I should be able to clear the current input or result.
• As a User, I should be able to view the result of my calculations immediately after input.

User Personas

• User: An individual who needs to perform basic arithmetic calculations quickly and efficiently.

Visuals Colors and Theme

The Sky-Project will feature a unique color palette that aligns with its minimalistic design philosophy:

• primary: #4A90E2 (a calming blue)
• primary_light: #A6C8F0 (a lighter tint of the primary blue)
• secondary: #F5A623 (a warm amber for emphasis)
• accent: #D0021B (a vibrant red for call-to-action elements)
• highlight: #F8E71C (a bright yellow for active states)
• bg: #FFFFFF (a clean white background)

• border: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) (a light gray for borders)

Signature Design Concept

The Sky-Project will feature an interactive, minimalist design where the calculator interface is the focal point. The homepage will have a clean, uncluttered layout with large, easy-to-read buttons and a responsive design that adapts to different screen sizes.

Concept Details:

• Interactive Numeric Pad: The numeric pad will have a subtle hover effect using framer-motion to provide visual feedback.
• Fluid Transitions: Smooth transitions between input and result states using gsap for a polished user experience.
• Dynamic Background: A soft gradient background that shifts subtly as users interact with the calculator, enhancing focus without distraction.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize an "animated" interaction model, featuring moderate scroll-triggered reveals and hover transitions. This approach will maintain the minimalistic aesthetic while adding a touch of modernity and engagement to the user experience.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The application should load within 2 seconds on a standard broadband connection.
• The calculator should be responsive and function correctly on all major browsers and devices.
• The design should adhere to accessibility standards, ensuring usability for all users.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Not applicable (client-side only)
• Database: Not applicable (client-side only)
• AI Models: Not applicable

Assumptions and Constraints

• The application will be a client-side only solution, with no server-side processing required.
• The design will prioritize simplicity and ease of use over additional features.
• The application will not store user data or calculation history.
