Grow the bundled species catalog from 14 hand-curated entries to ~1200 edible/cultivated species, internationalized in 13 languages (es, en, fr, de, it, pt, ca, gl, eu, ar, zh, ja, ru — Latin + Arabic RTL + CJK + Cyrillic). - Add a reproducible generator (tool/gen_species_catalog.dart) that queries Wikidata (CC0, no attribution burden) in two phases, filters out non-vernacular noise (author citations, ranks, initials) and applies a relevance floor, then merges hand-curated, authoritative core-crop data (tool/curated_overrides.json: names, family, viability_years). GBIF is used only as an identifier. The generated species.json (v3) is committed. - Carry wikidata_qid and gbif_key through the parse/seed pipeline; the columns already existed, so no DB migration. - Rewrite seedBundled to one read + one batch (was a SELECT per species on every startup — a real cost at ~1200 rows) and keep it idempotent with backfill of the new reference fields. - Move species search filtering to SQL (LIKE) so a large catalog is not pulled into memory on every keystroke. - Cover the generator transform, the generated asset, and the new fields with tests. |

Tanemaki 種まき
A local-first, decentralized app for managing and sharing traditional seeds and seedlings.
Tanemaki (種まき, "to sow / scatter seeds" in Japanese; short name Tane, 種 "seed") helps people and collectives keep a friendly inventory of their seed bank, decide what they offer, and share it locally — without a central intermediary that could control, censor, or be fined for it. The goal is both practical and political: to support traditional seed varieties and push back against the seed monopoly.
The name honors the old Japanese mutual-aid traditions around rice — yui (shared community labor) and tanomoshi (reciprocity funds) — that inspired the paper Plantare, the "community currency for seed exchange" (BAH-Semillero, 2009, CC-BY-SA). Tanemaki is the digital Plantare.

Status
Early design. See PLAN.md for the full analysis and roadmap (in Spanish). The valuable prior work lives in docs/mockups/.
Principles
- Local-first. Works fully offline, no account, no central server. Stays useful even if no one maintains it.
- Decentralized. Identity is a single key you own (Duniter/Ğ1-style, with a derived subkey for transport); sharing rides on open protocols (Nostr), with optional interoperability with the Ğ1/Duniter web of trust and currency. Never a central marketplace.
- Free/libre. Copyleft software, open data formats, multilingual from day one.
- Layered. Inventory -> Offer -> Local sharing -> Web of trust. Each layer is useful on its own.
Conventions
English is the project language for all code. Identifiers, class/field/column names, code comments, commit messages, branch names, and technical documents (data model, schemas) are written in English, without exception. This keeps the project contributable by anyone, anywhere.
- User-facing strings are never hardcoded — they go through i18n (the app itself is multilingual by design).
- Planning and discussion documents may be written in Spanish (e.g.
PLAN.md,docs/design/data-notes.md); technical specs that feed code are in English (e.g.docs/design/data-model.md). - Database schema changes ship as versioned Drift migrations (
drift_schemas/), one new version per change, never editing a released version. Seedocs/design/data-model.md§5.
