wild-software System Requirements Document

Introduction

The purpose of this document is to outline the system requirements for the "wild-software" project, an inventory management software designed specifically for Vansh Nagpal's shop in India. This software aims to streamline inventory operations by providing real-time product management and stock level alerts in a single-user environment.

System Overview

The "wild-software" project is a single-user inventory management system tailored for small shop operations. It allows the user to manage product details, adjust inventory levels in real-time, and receive alerts when stock levels fall below a predefined threshold. The system is designed to be intuitive and efficient, minimizing the need for extensive training or technical support.

Functional Requirements

• As a User, I should be able to add, edit, and delete product names and prices.
• As a User, I should be able to increase or decrease inventory levels in real-time.
• As a User, I should receive alerts when stock levels fall below a certain threshold.

User Personas

• User: The sole operator of the software, responsible for managing inventory and responding to stock alerts.

Visuals Colors and Theme

The color palette for "wild-software" is designed to be vibrant and engaging, reflecting the dynamic nature of inventory management:

• primary: #1A73E8 (a deep blue for a professional and trustworthy feel)
• primary_light: #E8F0FE (a light blue for hover states and secondary UI elements)
• secondary: #F9A825 (a bold amber for headlines and emphasis)
• accent: #FF5252 (a vibrant red for call-to-action buttons and active states)
• highlight: #FFC107 (a warm gold for hover states and notifications)
• bg: #FFFFFF (a clean white for the page background)
• surface: rgba(250, 250, 250, 0.8) (a light grey for card/panel backgrounds)
• text: #212121 (a dark grey for primary text)
• text_muted: #757575 (a softer grey for secondary text and labels)
• border: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) (a subtle grey for borders)

Signature Design Concept

The homepage of "wild-software" will feature an interactive inventory dashboard that resembles a dynamic warehouse floor. Using @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei, the user can navigate through a 3D space where each product is represented by a stack of boxes. Hovering over a stack reveals product details, and clicking allows for real-time inventory adjustments. The dashboard will include animated transitions using framer-motion to smoothly update stock levels and alert indicators. This immersive experience will make inventory management both engaging and intuitive.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

The landing page will utilize a "parallax" interaction model to create a sense of depth and engagement. Layers of product images and stock indicators will move at different speeds as the user scrolls, providing a visually rich first impression. Internal pages, such as the inventory management dashboard, will employ an "animated" model with scroll-triggered reveals and hover transitions to enhance user interaction.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The system must be responsive and accessible on various devices, including desktops and tablets.
• The software should load within 3 seconds on standard internet connections.
• Data integrity must be maintained during real-time inventory adjustments.

Tech Stack

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

Assumptions and Constraints

• The system is designed for a single-user environment and does not support multiple user roles.
• The software will operate in the Indian timezone and currency settings.
• Internet connectivity is assumed for real-time updates and alerts.
