Objective: Create an interactive and engaging website for the CityOS.fun project, serving as a platform for citizens to perform civic and sustainable impact actions, receive rewards (Action Points / CoS), and contribute to the regeneration of the local economy. The website should be intuitive, visually appealing, and focused on user experience (UX), especially for non-crypto natives.
Target Audience: Citizens interested in contributing to their community and environment, local businesses, NGOs, and municipal agencies.
Essential Website Sections and Functionalities:
-
Home Page (Interactive Dashboard) * Main Title: "CityOS.fun: Your Actions. Our Value. A Better City." * Personalized Dashboard: * My Rewards: Current balance of "Action Points (AP)" and "CityOS Tokens (CoS)". * My Impact: Visual summary of individual impact (e.g., number of trees planted, kg of waste recycled, volunteer hours). * My Actions: List of recent actions performed and their verification status. * Suggested Actions: Dynamic cards with "Actions of the Day" or "Local Challenges" near the user. * Highlight: Catchphrases about "turning everyday actions into collective value" and "Powered by Ethereum."
-
Local Opportunities Map (Interactive and Georeferenced) * Visualization: A city map (Google Maps style) with icons and markers. * Points of Interest: * Action Opportunities: Locations where participation is needed (e.g., parks needing tree planting, e-waste collection points, community cleanup events, local businesses partnering with "Local Shopping"). * Focus Areas: Areas of the city that require more attention in terms of sustainability or civic engagement (visualized by colors or "heatmaps"). * Local Impact: Markers showing completed or ongoing projects, with the impact generated. * Filters: Options to filter by action type (Sustainability, Volunteering, Local Shopping, Repairs), urgency, and available rewards. * Call to Action: Clicking on a point displays action details and a "Participate" or "I Want to Contribute" button.

-
Responsiveness: The site must be fully responsive for mobile devices, tablets, and desktops.
-
Accessibility: Inclusive design for diverse users.
-
Microinteractions: Subtle animations and visual feedback to make the experience more dynamic and rewarding.
-
Simplified Onboarding: Extremely easy registration and start-up process, minimizing blockchain jargon. Key Insight for the Creation Tool:
"Show, Don't Tell": The design should demonstrate the impact and opportunities, rather than simply describing them. The dashboard and map are central to this.
"Eth as Background Infrastructure": While blockchain is fundamental, the focus should be on the benefit and utility for citizens, not on technical complexity. Technology should be the invisible foundation that ensures trust and transparency.
"Positive-Sum Growth & Regeneration of the Local Economy": The design should visually communicate how the platform contributes to a vibrant local economy and a sustainable future. Use graphics and icons.
