Quick Summary:

The keystone of Gardens v2 infrastructure is the Covenant (contract name: registryCommunity), an on-chain social contract encoding the community’s values and purpose. People stake in this to become a supporter and then get access to participate in the community.

The Covenant contract has a registry of the smart contracts connected to the community, including a Council Safe (multisig with basic admin rights), Tribunal Safe (multisig that rules on disputes), Funding Pools, Treasury Sources, and any other app, native or external.

Our first native funding app is a Conviction Voting strategy modeled after Gardens v1. The Council Safe can set up any number of these CV strategies for the community each with their own settings, where supporters can create proposals and vote to allocate funding from the pool.

Entities / Pages

• Page hierarchy, starting at top:

  • Home Page (shows all tokens used as staking tokens for communities)
  • Token Page (shows all communities using that token as its staking token)
  • Community Page (home page for a community with covenant, apps, settings)
  • Pool Page (interact with a Conviction Voting pool)

• We used Excalidraw for a quick mockup of our current entities. These can also be viewed as application pages. Each one is divided into Data, Functionalities, and Metrics. Also below are the Figma and the current UI in development on Vercel.

• Community Page: To gain insight into what a community might look like, consider the information it could provide, metrics, and functionality: https://excalidraw.com/#room=aa3522419609a1d27596,KfIYwLtTD97bHyrYMaN2zg

• Pools and Proposals Page info : This might be helpful because you can understand the concept behind a pool and see the metrics we believe are important to display.

  Comments:

  • There are gonna be 2 important forms to create, creating a Community and Creating a Pool. I think here is where most 8 bits essence is gonna be implemented and forms be shown as “gaming as possible ”, seems very cool for us at the moment. Afterwards in each community, and each pool, some 8 bits essence might also be cool.

UserFlow:

• I am in the process of creating a comprehensive user flow diagram. This diagram will map out each step a user takes from the moment they access our application, all the way through to the final interactions. It is designed to provide a clear and detailed understanding of the user's journey within our app. Please note that this is still a work in progress and updates will be shared soon

Mock ups and Wireframes:

• Vibes: We aim to infuse the platform with an 8-bit aesthetic. This will be evident in some components, titles, and images or SVGs as we strive to capture that particular essence. This direction aligns with the core concept of a garden which is creating a fun, interactive and permissionless platform

• Colors: Our color scheme will predominantly feature greens and blues, paired with whites and blacks, among other colors. Each color should reflect the essence of a garden (DAO).
