CM50 — Cooperatives & Mutuals Leadership Circle

A mobile-first, fully responsive event & collaboration app for CM50, the leadership circle of the world's top cooperatives and mutuals. Built with Dioxus 0.7 (web).

This is a front-end-only mock-up: all data lives locally in the frontend (src/data/mock_data.rs) and the "AI" is deterministic and local (src/services/ai_mock.rs). The architecture is backend-ready — models are plain data and a thin service layer (src/services/) isolates persistence and AI so they can be swapped for real backend calls later.

Installation
