Animated Birthday Seating Kiosk

I’m organizing a milestone birthday party and want a fun, fool-proof way for guests to find their seats the moment they arrive. The plan is to place a large touch screen at the entrance that greets each person, lets them search their name, and then shows an animated floor plan that highlights their table and guides them there visually.

Here’s what I’m picturing: as soon as someone taps the screen, a colourful birthday-themed welcome animation plays. From there they can either type their name or scroll through an A-Z list. Once a name is selected, the seating chart zooms in on the correct table, lights it up with a short animation, and displays a friendly “Enjoy the party, [Guest Name]!” message. A secondary tab will let anyone glance at the evening’s schedule (cake cutting, speeches, dance floor opening) without leaving the seating view.

Because this will run on a single touch-enabled Windows tablet plugged into a TV, I need the interface packaged as a standalone executable or a locally hosted web app that launches full-screen and works offline—no internet at the venue. Graphics can be playful and modern, matching typical birthday colours, but please keep all text editable so I can tweak last-minute changes.

Deliverables
• Touch-ready application or web bundle running 1920×1080, offline
• Animated welcome screen, name search, seating map highlight, and schedule tab
• Simple admin file (CSV/JSON) where I can update guest names, table numbers, and timetable events
• One round of revisions after initial delivery to fine-tune colours, fonts, or animations

Acceptance Criteria
The final build must load in under five seconds, recognise every guest from the provided list, and display the correct table with a clear animation cue. All interactions should be smooth on a 55-inch touch monitor.
