Communities
Each house can have one community. Guests can visit the homepage and find out wether there's already a community existing at their address or wether they would be the ones to found the community.
Dashboard
The app features 3 main boards around the topics 'Parcels', 'Mutual help' and 'Community'. Cards that have been created since the users last logout also appear on the 'What you've missed' board.
Cards
Users can create cards for the different boards and select their desired category. They can choose from 'action', 'request', 'info', 'offer' or 'question' depending on their need and choose who the card should be directed to, which could either be a group or a single person. Users can add a title and fill in optionals, like a description, start- and end- date, start- and end time or upload pictures.
In order to have discussions that are topic-related, each card has a comments section where people can exchange.
Cards will only be visible to it's creator and it's recipients and can be edited or archived by their creator.
All the users cards can be viewed by accesing 'My cards' in the menu that's revealed on click on the users avatar in the nav bar.
Archived cards are shown in a separate tab.
Profile
User profiles can be accessed through a list of users that is revealed on click on the avatars in the upper right corner of the dashboard.
Each user has a profile where as much information can be shared as the user wants. The only mandatory information that is displayed are the name and the floor of the user. Users get rewarded with different badges depending on the number of cards made and the number of comments given.
