SciCommons aims to revolutionize academic publishing by providing an open peer review platform. The current system faces challenges such as time constraints and limited reviewer capacity. SciCommons addresses these by allowing any user to review, comment, and rate research articles, enhancing article quality and decreasing review time. Anonymity ensures ethical and unbiased reviews. Building upon its existing functionalities, the project will introduce private communities for exclusive peer review, an immersive discussion/chat sections for each article. Deliverables include modularizing the frontend, enhancing user experience, implementing small feature enhancements, and integrating private communities and discussion channels. The project will prioritize code quality and adhere to open-source standards. By democratizing scholarly discourse, SciCommons fosters collaboration and transparent peer review.
