Getting started
Three steps and you're rippling: tell RippleCore your name, join your Circle, and log your first act. Here's the whole loop.
Make it yours
The first time you open RippleCore, it asks for your name. That's the whole sign-up: no password, no email, no waiting on a confirmation link. Your name and avatar show up on your acts and your Me screen, and you can change them anytime.
It lives on your device. For now RippleCore keeps your acts, reactions, and profile in your browser. There's no account to manage and nothing syncs across devices yet, so treat it like a kindness journal you carry on one phone.
Join your Circle
RippleCore happens inside a Circle — a private, branded community for a university, school, workplace, or local group, usually funded by a sponsor. The reference Circle is FGCU — the Florida Gulf Coast University "Eagles." Everyone's acts roll up into the Circle's shared totals, so the small things you do become something the whole community can see.
Log your first act
Tap the Log button in the centre of the tab bar and choose how to share it: a quick act (a fast, private tally) or a story act (a photo and a caption for the feed). That's it — you'll earn your first ripple, your daily streak starts at one, and your act is on its way.
Not sure which to pick? Start with a quick act — it takes five seconds and stays private. You can always share a story act later when a moment is worth telling.
Where to next
Once you've logged something, the rest of RippleCore opens up: the feed, your Circle, the ins and outs of logging an act, and the badges and rewards you collect along the way.
