Design a mobile-first user interface (UI) for a Solana-based decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) governance dApp, optimized for iOS and Android devices, particularly Solana’s Seeker phone. The app enables DAO members to propose, vote on, and execute governance actions on-chain, with an integrated secure chat feature for member communication. The UI must be intuitive, visually appealing, and aligned with Solana’s high-performance, low-cost blockchain ecosystem, targeting the Solana Mobile Hackathon’s criteria for functionality, design/UX, and novelty.
App Description:
Purpose: Facilitate mobile DAO governance for Solana’s 170,000+ native device users, allowing seamless proposal creation, quadratic voting, on-chain execution, and secure communication.
Key Features:
Proposal Creation: Users draft and submit governance proposals (e.g., funding, protocol changes) with customizable parameters (voting period, quorum).
Quadratic Voting: Fair voting system where voting power scales with the square root of staked tokens.
Action Execution: Approved proposals trigger on-chain actions (e.g., fund transfers) via Solana smart contracts.
Secure Chat: Encrypted, token-gated chat for DAO members to discuss proposals or coordinate.
Push Notifications: Alerts for proposal deadlines, voting outcomes, or new chat messages.
Wallet Integration: Connects to Solana wallets (e.g., Phantom, Solflare) via Solana App Kit for signing transactions.
Analytics Dashboard: Displays DAO metrics (e.g., voting turnout, treasury balance) using
@flipsidecrypto
or
@Dune
data.
Offline Mode: Caches recent proposals or chats for offline access, syncing when online.
Target Audience: Solana power users (Seeker device owners), DAO members (e.g., DeFi, NFT communities), and crypto enthusiasts seeking mobile-first governance tools.
Platform: Built with Solana App Kit (React Native) for iOS/Android compatibility.
UI Design Requirements:
Mobile-First Design:
Optimize for small screens (e.g., 5–7 inches, typical for Seeker devices).
Ensure touch-friendly navigation with clear buttons, minimal text input, and swipeable menus.
Support portrait and landscape modes with responsive layouts.
Visual Aesthetics:
Adopt a modern, clean design inspired by Solana’s branding (e.g., vibrant colors like purple, blue, or neon green; sleek gradients).
Use a dark mode default (with light mode toggle) to align with crypto app trends and reduce eye strain.
Incorporate subtle animations (e.g., loading spinners, transitions) for a polished feel.
Navigation:
Use a bottom navigation bar with 4–5 core tabs: Home (Dashboard), Proposals, Voting, Chat, and Wallet/Settings.
Include a floating action button (FAB) for quick access to creating proposals or starting chats.
Ensure one-tap access to key actions (e.g., vote, send message) to minimize clicks.
Key Screens:
Home (Dashboard):
Display DAO overview: treasury balance, active proposals, recent votes.
Include a mini analytics widget (e.g., voting turnout graph) powered by
@flipsidecrypto
or
@Dune
.
Quick links to active proposals or unread chat messages.
Proposals Screen:
List active and past proposals with filters (e.g., “Open,” “Closed,” “My Proposals”).
Show proposal details (title, description, voting deadline, quorum status) in expandable cards.
Button to create a new proposal with fields for title, description, voting period, and quorum.
Voting Screen:
Display current proposal with quadratic voting interface (e.g., slider to allocate votes based on staked tokens).
Show real-time vote tally and user’s voting power.
Confirm vote with wallet signature via Solana App Kit.
Chat Screen:
List token-gated chat rooms or direct messages with unread message indicators.
Support text, emojis, and links, with end-to-end encryption (e.g., Signal Protocol).
Include a “Reply to Proposal” feature linking chats to specific proposals.
Wallet/Settings Screen:
Connect/disconnect Solana wallets (e.g., Phantom, Solflare).
Display token balance and staked tokens for voting.
Settings for push notifications, theme toggle, and offline mode.
User Experience (UX):
Intuitive Flow: Ensure users can create a proposal, vote, or send a chat message in 2–3 taps.
Feedback Mechanisms: Provide visual feedback (e.g., success animations, error alerts) for actions like voting or wallet transactions.
Accessibility: Support larger fonts, high-contrast modes, and screen reader compatibility.
Offline Support: Cache recent proposals, votes, and chats for offline viewing, with a “Sync” button for online updates.
Hackathon Appeal:
Highlight Solana’s branding (e.g., logo, color scheme) to emphasize ecosystem integration.
Showcase mobile-first innovation with features like push notifications and AR-inspired transitions (e.g., holographic effects for proposal cards).
Align with hackathon criteria: functional (fully navigable UI), novel (mobile-first DAO governance), and user-centric (intuitive for crypto novices and experts).
Technical Constraints:
Design for React Native compatibility (via Solana App Kit) to ensure cross-platform performance.
Optimize for low-latency interactions, leveraging Solana’s high throughput for real-time updates.
Minimize data usage for push notifications and offline caching to suit mobile environments.
Inspiration:
Draw from Solana dApps like Step Finance (clean dashboards) or Sollinked (social UX).
Emulate popular mobile apps like Discord (chat layout) or Robinhood (financial UX) for familiarity.
Incorporate gamified elements (e.g., badges for active voters) inspired by hackathon winners like Chomp.
Deliverables:
High-fidelity wireframes for 5 core screens (Home, Proposals, Voting, Chat, Wallet/Settings) in Figma or similar tools.
A style guide with color palette (e.g., Solana’s purple #9945FF
, neon green #14F195
), typography (e.g., sans-serif fonts like Inter), and component library (buttons, cards, modals).
A short video or interactive prototype (e.g., via Figma or Adobe XD) showcasing navigation flow (e.g., creating a proposal → voting → chatting).
Optional: Mockups for push notification designs and AR-inspired animations.
Constraints:
Design for a 6-month development timeline (leading to June 2025 hackathon).
Ensure compatibility with Solana App Kit’s wallet integration and Solana Pay for transactions.
Prioritize simplicity to avoid overwhelming non-technical DAO members.
Success Criteria:
The UI feels native to iOS/Android, with smooth navigation and minimal learning curve.
Judges at the Solana Mobile Hackathon perceive the design as innovative, functional, and aligned with Solana’s mobile-first vision.
The interface supports all key features (proposal creation, quadratic voting, chat, notifications) in a visually cohesive way.
Additional Notes:
Consider Solana’s power user base (crypto-savvy, early adopters) when balancing simplicity and advanced features.
Incorporate feedback mechanisms (e.g., tooltips, onboarding tutorial) to guide first-time users.
Test designs on mobile emulators to ensure responsiveness on Seeker-like devices.
This prompt provides clear guidance for an AI to design a mobile-first UI that meets the hackathon’s goals while ensuring usability and visual appeal. If you’d like me to refine the prompt further (e.g., add specific design inspirations or focus on a single screen), generate sample wireframe descriptions, or assist with prototyping tools, let me know! Alternatively, I can search X for UI design trends in Solana dApps to enhance the prompt.
