Winter-Build System Requirements Document

1. Introduction

The Winter-Build project aims to deliver a comprehensive solution tailored to the needs of users in India. This document outlines the system requirements necessary to achieve the project's objectives.

2. System Overview

Winter-Build is designed to provide a robust and user-friendly platform that caters to the specific needs of its target audience. The system will incorporate modern technologies and design principles to ensure a seamless user experience.

3. Functional Requirements as Story Points

• As a User, I should be able to register and create an account.
• As a User, I should be able to log in and access my dashboard.
• As a User, I should be able to view and edit my profile information.
• As a User, I should be able to upload and manage files.
• As a User, I should be able to receive notifications for important updates.
• As an Admin, I should be able to manage user accounts and permissions.
• As an Admin, I should be able to generate reports on system usage.

4. User Personas

• User: Regular users who interact with the platform to manage their personal data and receive updates.
• Admin: Users with elevated privileges who manage the system's backend, user accounts, and generate reports.

5. Core User Flows

• User registers -> logs in -> updates profile -> uploads files -> receives notifications.
• Admin logs in -> manages user accounts -> generates reports.

6. Visuals Colors and Theme

• primary: #1E90FF (Dodger Blue)

7. Signature Design Concept

The Winter-Build homepage will feature an interactive winter landscape scene. Users can click and drag to manipulate snowflakes, revealing hidden features and information as they interact. The scene will be animated using motion/react to create a dynamic and engaging experience. Snowflakes will gently fall, and users can hover over them to see them twinkle and change colors, creating a magical winter wonderland effect.

Landing Hero Motion Brief

The landing page will feature a continuous loop of snowflakes gathering around a central snowman. As users interact, the snowman will transform, showcasing different winter accessories (e.g., hats, scarves) to reveal user outcomes like personalization and customization. The animation will be built using CSS and motion/react, ensuring a smooth and responsive experience across devices.

8. Interaction Model & Motion Direction

• Intended Interaction Model: Animated
  • The landing page will feature moderate scroll-triggered reveals and hover transitions.
  • Interactive elements will have spring physics to enhance user engagement.
• Internal Pages: Static
  • Focus on layout clarity with minimal motion for dashboards and settings.

9. Non-Functional Requirements

• The system must be available 99.9% of the time.
• The system must support up to 10,000 concurrent users.
• The system must comply with data protection regulations applicable in India.

10. Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Python, FastAPI
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB, using Alembic for migrations
• Local Orchestration: Docker, docker-compose
• Server-side Orchestration: Kubernetes

11. Assumptions and Constraints

• The project will be developed with a focus on the Indian market.
• The system will be optimized for both desktop and mobile devices.
• Development will adhere to agile methodologies.

12. Glossary
