Spotted a major error in the CSV import component.
#configmakeathon update!!!
I initially designed and integrated this component to also scan the incoming CSV file and match for already exisitng emails on the guest list to avoid duplicate guest info on the list.
This was properly implemented and a good implementation at that.
But a problem surfaced; the system began to reject some imports by rejecting the emails that aren't assigned to a Crowd 9 account... which isn't necessary and needed because a planner may have eventually put that email manualy or may have edited a previously exported CSV file from the system.
I fixed this and the system works perfectly fine now.
Now when you import a CSV, guests will be added directly to the event without needing to match their emails to existing Crowd9 accounts. The system supports a mix of both:
Registered users who sign up through the app (have user_id and user_profile)
Imported guests who are added via CSV (have guest_name and guest_email, no user_id)
To even better avoid duplicate prevention; the sytem now uses a new key pattern event_guest_email:{eventId}:{email} to prevent duplicate imports based on email+event combination.
Love the build-in-public updates, Divine! 🙌 Don't forget to check the guidelines and make sure your full submission is complete before the deadline!
Alright, Nia. Thank you.
I'll be making my full submission soon.😊

Architect of Chaos: Branding Cobalt Analytics for the Envato Challenge
AI has completely changed the creative landscape, but it hasn’t changed what makes a digital product functional. For the Envato Challenge, I set out to design the brand identity and UI concept for a B2B SaaS platform, Cobalt Analytics. The goal was to show the crucial difference between machine generation and human curation.
The Insight: The Azulejo Metaphor
Data analytics is often visually represented by clichéd glowing nodes and neon webs. I wanted a metaphor with history. I turned to Azulejo — traditional Portuguese ceramic tiles. Historically, the art of Azulejo was about taking thousands of fragmented, independent tiles and assembling them into one grand, coherent narrative. This is exactly what a predictive data platform does: it turns chaotic metrics into a clear system.
The Process: AI as the Miner, Human as the Filter
I started by feeding AI historical references of Azulejo tiles. The result? Absolutely stunning, yet completely unusable visual noise. AI generated beautiful chaos, but as a designer, I know that algorithms don't understand scalability, negative space, or modular grids.
The Extraction: I rejected 95% of the AI generations, extracting just one perfect geometric silhouette hidden in the noise.
The Clean-Up: I moved to Envato Elements to source mathematically perfect vector shapes and rebuilt the AI's concept into a clean, scalable brand mark.
The System (Figma): I established a strict modular Bento-grid, paired the complex geometry with a brutalist sans-serif typography, and built out the core UI dashboard widgets in Figma.
The Execution (Zero Photoshop): To bring the brand into the real world, I utilized Envato’s native mockup generator. I applied my designs directly to premium physical and digital mockups right inside Envato's browser tool—no Photoshop required. A completely streamlined, modern workflow.
The Result: Cobalt Analytics.
A brand identity that is mathematically precise, highly scalable, and ready for development. AI generated the noise, but human judgment built the system.
And for the brave souls, here is the link to the full Figma file. Fair warning: it’s a typical creative mess inside, you know how it is 😅
