The source code of Cywin: https://github.com/windy/cywin

Cywin is a stock crowdfunding platform, just like angellist but in China.

Cywin can build the connection between startups and talented investors with stock investment.

Cywin is a full-flow platform for the investment process.

in China, its competitors are AngelCruch, as: 天使汇, VC club, as: 创投圈 and etc.

Core process like this:

1. Startup

   Create Project -> Publish it -> Start financing -> Invite Investor leader -> Investor leader confirm -> Normal Investors follow -> Success

2. Normal investor

   • Apply Investor leader
   • Follow an investment by investor leader

3. Investor leader

   • Lead an investment of project
   • Make rule for the investment of project

Cywin now is open source.

Why makes Cywin open-source?

After spending six month to make this project, I realized, I can not ship this platform with my parnter. With lack of resources below the line, I think, it's a fault for me to build it. It costed all my energy.

Besides, the confict of fundamental production principle with parnter was more and more serious. With never positive feedback for Cywin, I finally decided to quit the project.

A few month later, I made Cywin open source when the source code of Cywin would not be used. I hope it will be useful for other friends like you.

Will it be maintained?

Exactly not. Since I have realized this road is wrong.

But Cywin is a pretty project. It is made by clean and neat code, its architecture is awful flexible, with lots of test cases( 120+ ).

Besides, it has beautiful UI, supports responsive page, good scss and clean AngularJS code.

In the whole, it's one of my most proud works alone.

Can I get your help for it?

Yes, I am pleasure if you want to study AngularJS and Ruby on Rails on the strength of Cywin. If you want to continue developing, I'm glad too.

Fell free to submit your issue when you find something wrong. I will help you in my leisure time ASAP.
