Circles are the basic units of organization within Web Tree. Circles are dynamic, decentralized groups where members work toward shared goals. Each Circle can have its own focus, such as community growth, specific projects, or shared values. Circles operate with their own set of rules and governance.
Each Circle sets its own rules regarding how members earn Impact and generate Pressure. Circles are autonomous and have the power to create and change their governance models to meet the needs of their members. This flexibility allows each Circle to evolve over time.
Members can belong to multiple Circles, allowing individuals to participate in various aspects of the community. Circles can focus on anything—learning, creating, socializing, or collaborating on projects. This ensures that members can engage where they feel their contributions are most valued.
If a member or group of members disagrees with how a Circle is being run, they have the ability to “fork” that Circle. Forking allows them to create a new Circle with a different set of rules while preserving their previous contributions. This ensures that innovation and experimentation are always possible and that people can freely align themselves with the Circle that best fits their values.
Communities where members gather to share knowledge and skills, such as coding, art, or entrepreneurship.
Groups that work together on specific projects, whether it’s a software development project, a creative endeavor, or a community improvement initiative.
Social groups built around shared values, hobbies, or regional communities that want to make a positive impact on the environment or society.
Circles are not static. Members can change the rules, add new functionalities, or split into smaller Circles. This dynamic evolution allows Circles to adapt to changing needs and challenges while maintaining their core principles.
