Felines Wiki

Educational platform, first and foremost — Felines exists to turn people who aren't cat people into guardians of stray cats, and the map is one of the actions it hands them once they're convinced, not the point of the product.

"Every world domination plan has the same problem: the already-convinced don't need convincing. We built a platform for everyone else."

Repository: https://github.com/luarawork/felines Built for: Hack the Kitty 2026 Stack: Next.js 16 · TypeScript · Supabase · Leaflet.js · Netlify

What is Felines?

Felines is a full-stack web platform with two core purposes, in order of what the product is actually built to do:

  1. Educate people who aren't cat people yet — converting conflicted neighbors, curious passersby, and averse citizens into community guardians through logic, not emotion. This is the point of the product: turn understanding into action.
  2. Map stray cat colonies collaboratively, with progressive location blur to protect the animals from malicious users. Mapping is one of the actions education leads to, not a separate goal competing with it.

The product was built solo for Hack the Kitty 2026, with 21 routes, 86 database migrations, full PT/EN internationalization, a complete Aikido Security audit, and WCAG 2.2 accessibility compliance.
