strategydance

An AI experiment.

A Bun monorepo. Packages live under packages/.

Vision

Strategy Dance aims to create partly autonomous companies that involve both humans and AIs.

Its first iteration will act as an overseer and companion for solo entrepreneurs, helping them build, distribute, stay accountable, stay consistent, and, more generally, act on their projects using AI guidance and human wisdom. Progressively, AI guidance will evolve into AI execution, performing tasks typically reserved for humans.

In the long term, we would create 100% automated companies. We could also provide existing organizations with AI employees across various departments and possibly offer salaries to the humans who work for AI-led companies.

The main challenge is to solve company creation and execution by creating a universal system. The answer lies in architecture and design.

Packages

packages/strategydance-web — TanStack Start (SPA mode) + React + Tailwind CSS v4, built with Vite
packages/strategydance-database — the Firebase Data Connect service: the Postgres schema, its connectors, and the SDK generated from them
packages/strategydance-core — types, enums and constants shared by every package, with zero runtime dependencies
packages/strategydance-design-system — the component library: shadcn + Tailwind CSS v4, documented in Storybook
packages/strategydance-translations — the Gemini-backed CLI that translates the message catalogues. Node-only
packages/strategydance-emails — the transactional emails, as React Email templates the backend renders. Node-only
packages/strategydance-backend — a Bun and Express server on Cloud Run, for what needs a secret or the server's word, like inviting people

Beside them, documents/ holds documents written for people rather than for the build, in Markdown only.

Getting started

bun install
bun run dev:emulators
bun run dev:backend
bun run dev

Each in its own terminal. The frontend is served on http://localhost:5173 and the backend on http://localhost:3003, both against the Firebase emulators.

Translations

The interface is localized with React Intl into English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Chinese and Japanese. English is the source: its strings are the defaultMessages in packages/strategydance-web/src/data/intl/messages/, so it has no catalogue of its own.

bun run translate fills the other six from those sources with Gemini, and only sends what has actually changed. It needs a key in packages/strategydance-translations/.env (see .env.example) and it spends quota on every run, so it is run by hand rather than in CI.
