Problem Statement
Design an offline-first web application that enables civilians in a fully network-blackout environment to share, relay, and access critical information using peer-to-peer local communication (Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Direct) and QR-based communal data drops.
The system must function without any internet infrastructure and demonstrate information propagation across multiple devices and physical locations.
The system should prioritize usability, low resource consumption, and privacy protections.
