Building \'Introverse\' - A Welcoming Digital Space for Introverts | Wix Studio Challenge Submission

This is a submission for the Wix Studio Challenge: Community Edition.

My Community Platform

Introverse is a platform dedicated to introverts, offering a cosy, welcoming online space to connect, reflect, and learn. It’s designed to foster genuine connections and creativity without the noise of traditional social spaces. With discussion rooms, blog content, and a store with thoughtful merchandise, Introverse aims to nurture a sense of belonging for every introverted member.

Development Journey

In creating Introverse, I leaned into Wix Studio’s development tools, combining simplicity with customization to craft a platform that feels intuitive and authentic. Velo APIs were key in bringing added functionality, and Wix Apps allowed for integrated features that catered to our community’s unique needs.

Velo APIs

Here’s how I used Velo APIs to enhance Introverswe:

1. Inventory Alerts: The Velo API powers a dynamic stock message on the store page. "Only a few left!" is displayed on items with fewer than 20 in stock, helping keep members informed about availability.
2. Animations: Using @velo/wix-animation-helpers, I added smooth transitions and animations, creating a more engaging and calming experience across the site.

Wix Apps

To offer a complete experience for Introverse members, I integrated these Wix Apps:

• Wix Blog: Hosts articles, stories, and guides on topics that resonate with introverts, from personal growth to creativity.
• Wix Store: A curated selection of products that help introverts express their identity, such as shirts, totes, and mugs.
• Wix Forum: A welcoming space where members can join various “Nooks” (discussion rooms) to chat and share on topics that matter most.
• Wix Forms: Used to power our newsletter sign-up, making it simple for members to stay updated on community events and new content.
• Wix Member Area: Allows members to create profiles, join discussions, and access member-exclusive content, adding a personal touch to the community.

Thanks to Wix Studio and DEV for this chance to share Introverse!
