Hello everyone,
I made a few mockups of what the first app that my team will develop for EOS could look like. It's a lot like Steemit but it also includes social possibilities like meet ups.
Create, share, discover, meet new people
The idea is to be able to share posts about what you like most ; your hobbies, and to be able to meet with people who like the same things as you or to discover new hobbies and new friends.
Get paid for your content
Users get paid in tokens by votes, these tokens could be exchanged (just like STEEM) for money in the available exchanges.
Any content can get votes, posts, meet ups, comments.
Earn rewards by holding tokens
The more tokens you have in your account the more your vote will have value. Token holders would receive 50% of the created tokens. Example : A post gets 100 USD in rewards, 50 USD goes to the author, 50 USD goes to the token holders of the platform. (this can be changed later if we need to refine how we distribute wealth accross the platform).
Fast cash out
I believe that the tokens should be available fast for cash out, a maximum of 7 days lock up could be a solution. This mean that you would need to wait 7 days to unlock your tokens.
Language filtering
All the content could be filtered by language, you can decide to hide all the languages that you are not interested in.
Trust level
I would like to introduce some kind of trust level in this app, by linking your social accounts, phone number and photo holding a piece of paper with the name of the website you will be able to get a higher trust level, the higher your trust level the higher your rewards. It's not mandatory to upgrade your trust level, but if you want to earn more rewards and trust on the platform its a good thing to do.
Fast delivery of the MVP
- Once we are ready to start working on the definitive idea for this project it will be very fast to have the MVP online, the first step is the design of the app, 99designs.com should be fine (this will cost around 2000 to 3000 USD).
- The backend its almost done already as we started working on this project a while ago, indeed, the backend can be developed upfront without any design or a definitive idea.
- Once the design is ready we will start working on the frontend with REACT.
- After the frontend and backend is ready we will push the code to a staging depository on github, we will then test and debug the app, add features and modify it as necessary.
- After the staging phase we will release an alpha public version of the app. This stage is important as we will use the app with real users and with their feedback we will correct bugs and change/add features as needed.
The blockchain technology will be EOS unless something unexpected happen.
Please note that the mockups are just mockups and nothing is definitive. We are still brainstorming for the best idea.
Example of homepage
Example of profile page
Looks really cool! I wonder how the meetup page would look like. I still don't know if the blogpost and the meetup part work together like you you imagine it now.
Keep me updated!
(I'm a UI/UX designer and front-end developer so I would love to help)
Hi, yes you can't know for sure if the app is well designed unless you try it. In my mind you can configure your dashboard as you wish, removing panels, adding panels, moving panels, etc.
I think thas a nice idea, you must go for it, think big, and it will be big, very nice post!

Comments are welcome, what do you think about this idea ? Should we go futher ? Any remarks ?
