Pulse
A public poll for current-affairs questions. People sign up, vote on live questions, and only then see how everyone else voted. Admins post questions; voters see them flagged as New on their dashboard.
What's here
The full product surface is clickable today, running on sample data stored in your browser:
- Welcome (
/): pitch with Sign in / Create account tabs (email one-time code, Google, Turnstile placeholder, 18+ and consent).
- Dashboard (
/dashboard): greeting, open questions with red "New" tags, filters, and a live toast when a question is posted (try the admin console in a second tab).
- Question (
/q/[id]): options first; after voting, animated result bars, "X% agree with you", Share on X, Copy result, and an age breakdown that hides groups under 20.
- Admin (
/admin, faint link bottom-right of the welcome page): "Not authorised" for voters, a 2FA step for admins, then post / close / reopen / delete and an audit log. The preview includes a clearly labelled "Preview as admin" option.
- Account (
/account): edit profile, sign out, delete account and data.
- Privacy and Terms pages.
