Overview SaviPay is a UI-centric fintech frontend built for mobile devices. It is designed to translate a standout Figma design into a robust, responsive interface. The app focuses on clean visuals, smooth interactions, and a developer-friendly structure. It serves as the visual foundation for a future-ready financial product in Africa, with emphasis on accessibility, performance, and a modular component library. This repository captures the design-to-implementation flow, including the design tokens, components, routes, and configuration needed to ship a polished UI quickly.

Why SaviPay matters Africa’s financial landscape is diverse and rapidly evolving. SaviPay aims to provide a reliable frontend framework that teams can extend to build consumer-facing banking, payments, and wallet features. By aligning with a mobile-first mindset, the project prioritizes small screens, fast load times, and intuitive navigation. The integration with a visual design from Figma helps ensure that developers maintain the look and feel while delivering a consistent user experience across platforms.

Key features

• Pixel-accurate design from a Figma source: Visual fidelity is preserved as you implement components.
• Clean, maintainable codebase: Clear structure, predictable file organization, and friendly DX.
• Component-driven architecture: Reusable UI blocks reduce duplication and speed up development.
• Expo-based runtime: Quick iteration, hot reload, and easy testing on real devices.
• Expo Router for navigation: Simple, file-based routing with a focus on performance.
• React hooks and modern patterns: Hooks for state, effects, and data flow keep code readable.
• Developer-friendly structure: Simple onboarding, consistent naming, and helpful tooling.
• Accessibility considerations: Clear focus management, landmarks, and proper semantics.
• Scalable theming and tokens: Design tokens for colors, typography, and spacing.

Design-to-code workflow

• Start from the Figma design and extract tokens for color, typography, and spacing
• Build a small set of base components that reflect the design language
• Compose screens using those base components with consistent spacing and alignment
• Apply the design tokens uniformly to ensure visual coherence
• Iterate with design feedback, keeping performance in mind

Component library and examples

• Buttons: Primary, secondary, ghost, and icon variants
• Inputs: Text fields, password fields, dropdowns, and search bars
• Cards: Information cards with elevation and shadows
• Lists: Compact and dense list items with avatars and meta data
• Dialogs and modals: Confirmation and alert prompts
• Tabs and navigation: Segmented controls and routing-aware navigation
• Badges and chips: Status indicators and quick filters
• Avatars: User representations with fallback options
• Toggles and switches: On/off controls with accessible labeling
• Skeletons: Loading placeholders that align with the final layout

Routing and navigation

• Expo Router is used to implement a file-based routing approach
• Each screen maps to a route file, helping maintain predictable navigation paths
• Deep linking support is available for mobile and web targets
• Route guards and simple redirection patterns are included to handle authentication flows and onboarding

State management and data flow

• Local state is managed with React useState and useReducer where appropriate
• Global concerns are handled with React Context or custom hooks
• Data fetching and asynchronous work use async/await with error handling
• Components are designed to be stateless where possible and to receive data via props to maximize reusability

Accessibility and inclusive design

• Semantic elements and clear labeling for screen readers
• Keyboard navigation support for interactive components
• Color contrast tested for readability across devices
• Focus indicators remain visible during navigation
• Accessible error messaging on input fields and actions
