Case outline:
While we're more connected than ever in history thanks to technology, more often than not, we can see people struggling with complex emotions and moods. They/We're coping with such emotions alone, and they/we might think they/we're the only ones experiencing such hardships. Now, as working-class people, while we keep our minds busy over the 5/9 routine, sometimes we lose perspective on how common and pandemic this issue really is. Not to mention how shared those emotions are with your peers. Not only apathy and demotivation but widespread depression and anxiety are, indeed, nowadays a global public health issue (As a matter of fact, according to the WHO, it is estimated that 5.0% of adults suffer from depression). But, what if we, collectively, can help each other to make something out of this reality? The fact that people starting to experience loneliness don't know about each other and their coping strategies undermine opportunities for the coordination of mutual aid and collective action. Algedonic uses cybernetic technology (an algedometer + feedforward adaption procedure of pain alleviation to handle system disturbances) to collect anonymous data about affective states from working people. Algedonic not only shows you that you're not the only one feeling that way but encourages you and connect with people from the community to actually brainstorm structural strategies of mutual aid helping community members to map and organize collective action focused on tackling such issues collaboratively peer-reported by the community. Algedonic, then, turns those previously unknown disturbances into opportunities to enhance the adaptive resilience of the community and its comprising peer members.
Architecture:
SapperJs (todo: Upgrade to SvelteKit + Typescript), Svelte (todo: Upgrade Typescript syntax), Rollup Bundler, MaterializeCss Admin Dashboard + Neumorphism UI (todo: Shift entirely to Neumorphism UI so that app uses lower resources, minify files, compress images and files, code cache and prefetch what could be preloaded), Nodefetch (todo: Opt for Axios), Polka (todo: Upgrade to inbuilt Sveltekit handling). Remove unnecesary files. Comment code functionality.
Other TODOs: Build Eslint-Prettier pipeline, Add Cypress UT, Add Coverage Tests, Add vulnerability checks. Add CI pipeline. Refine and purge NavBar Autocomplete legacy models. Finish Sidebarpages. Add reactivity to aggregation for glowing circle. Add upload mood function. Connect with own DB (NestJS). Add expire headers and improve cache. Remove unnecesary cookies. Dockerify repository.
