## What is Plateside?

Plateside is a unique social networking app that lets you connect with people using license plates as addresses. See a cool car? Want to compliment someone's ride? Just message their plate.

Perfect for:
- Car enthusiasts and automotive fans
- Complimenting interesting vehicles
- Connecting with fellow drivers
- Sharing helpful messages ("Your lights are on")
- Making real-world connections
- Posting to the public feed

Features:
- Message any license plate instantly
- Claim your own plates to receive messages
- Public feed of all messages
- View message threads for specific plates
- See messages sent to your claimed plates
- Push notifications when someone messages your plate
- Clean, modern interface
- Privacy-focused design

How it works:
See an interesting vehicle? Open Plateside, search for their license plate (plate number + state), and send them a message. Your message appears in the public feed and in that plate's thread.

Claim your own license plates to see messages others send to you. It's like having a mailbox for your car.

Plateside is designed for positive connections - compliment a cool ride, share appreciation for someone's vehicle, or make a helpful comment. Turn parking lots into communities.

Every message is public and visible in the global feed, creating a transparent and friendly environment for automotive enthusiasts to connect.
