Community in a Box
Thousands of urban book boxes, sharing shelves, and swap corners exist across our cities, built by citizens, for citizens, with no budget and no coordination. Yet each one is an island. Nobody knows what's inside, who maintains them, or what's happening nearby.Community in a Box connects these objects into a living neighborhood network. Scan a box, find a book, discover a local event, offer a skill, meet a neighbor. No app, no platform, no friction. Just a sticker, a code, and the street around you.The first step toward cities that can see and strengthen what their citizens have already built.

You are in excellent hands with this challenge, and from what I heard just now - that you're working on a design prototype in Canva, while a frontend team sets up a Vue.js project and on the backend a FastAPI (Python) workflow is in development 👐🏽 Maybe if I can add one thought, it is to think creatively about digital authenticity. Very tempting smells from the community kitchen: looking forward to see the result!
