Austin MVP

Start with events. Grow into a town network.

The first release focuses on event links because they create a simple loop: create event, share flyer, collect RSVPs, remind guests, and bring people back to DesiWasi.

Now RSVP event links

Public pages, QR flyers, no-login guest RSVP, calendar add, and host roster.

Next Town discovery

Newsletter, local businesses, maps, posts, and town follow flows.

Later Mini app loops

Travel buddy matching, classifieds, live commerce, courses, and paid community services.

For RTIE admins

Manage the first event from the app admin surface.

Until DesiWasi has full in-app host roles, the current event editor gives RTIE or approved city admins a controlled place to create events, upload media, publish links, and watch RSVPs.
