Civid

The Project

Civid was a social debate platform that revolves around the latest breaking news. Users were invited to challenge their stance on breaking news and recent events, and present new perspectives to people who want their opinions challenged.

Technologies

React, Redux, Bulma, Django, PostgreSQL, AWS, Adobe XD, Illustrator, Photoshop

Date

July 2017–August 2019

Civid’s goal was to create a cooperative intellectual community committed to gaining a greater understanding of current events. During alpha phase, users were invited to start a discussion based on an opinion they accept as flawed, and other users are challenged to change their mind. Users who are the most successful at demonstrating their perspective on the topic are awarded points and accolades.
