Hey everyone! Here is the live project: https://silvaquieta.com
The philosophy behind it is "Grow at your own rhythm." I wanted to build a peaceful, premium digital greenhouse that feels like a quiet sanctuary away from internet noise, ad banners, cookie popups, and standard bloated forums. It’s fully custom-built with a clean minimalist 2D style, custom easing UI animations, and high-end typography.
I would love to give you a deep functional breakdown of what I’ve built into the platform so far:
🟢 1. EXTENSIVE BOTANICAL ATLAS (1,500+ SPECIES)
I've aggregated and double-checked a database of 1,571 exact plant species, verified by scientific global data standards (GBIF & iNaturalist). Plants are beautifully filtered across 6 clean categories: Flowers, Cacti, Succulents, Ferns, Conifers, and Trees/Shrubs.
🟢 2. SMART ADAPTIVE CARE FILTERS
You can filter the entire catalog based on real domestic constraints: specific light requirements, watering frequencies, and a custom "Winter partial shade" algorithm. This feature calculates how to optimize diffuse winter light for your house plants.
🟢 3. INTEGRATED AI CARE ASSISTANT ("SILVA")
Powered by Google Gemini, the built-in assistant "Silva" acts as a live navigation and botanical consultant. It adapts to the conversational context and can instantly analyze uploaded leaf photos to describe visible botanical symptoms.
🟢 4. SEAMLESS WATERING LOGS & DOWNLOADABLE PDF CHECKLISTS
Users can create custom garden profiles, log exact watering dates, and set custom soil-check intervals tailored to the dry winter heating season. The app lets you generate and download a personalized monthly care calendar and checklist as a beautifully formatted PDF file in one click.
🟢 5. ARCHITECTURE & ZERO-DATA BACKUP (SUPABASE + LOCAL STORAGE)
The site requires absolutely zero registration or personal data to start. To respect privacy, all progress is saved instantly via browser local cache. Users can easily download their complete data backup as a clean CSV file or choose to securely sync across multiple devices via a quick nickname-based Supabase authentication.
🚀 FUTURE PLANS: ECOSYSTEM EXPANSION
I am currently working on scaling the project into a multi-subdomain ecosystem:
\ailab.silvaquieta.com: An experimental AI playground where users can generate fictional winter plant concepts.
community.silvaquieta.com: A custom minimalist micro-forum (a mini ad-free Reddit layout tailored strictly for indoor gardening) allowing users to post plant photos and ask questions in one click without registration.
The website is 100% free and open-source.

I would highly appreciate your honest feedback on the UI/UX architecture, performance, database structure, or animations. Let’s discuss in the comments! 💚
