MoonHighway / balanced-citizen

An app to keep track of what you're doing and if those activities are in balance.

Balanced Citizen

There are 24 hours in a day. Make the most of them!

With this app, you'll be able to track your productivity with an emphasis on balance in three separate categories:

1. Workin': This is work. You're putting your efforts toward a task that you have to do. Could be paid labor, could be yard work, any type of work.
2. Strivin': This category is for any sort of self-improvement work. Going to the gym. Reading. Studying a new language. Meditation.
3. Thrivin': This category is for fun. If you're at a music festival, you're thrivin'! If you're at a restaurant with your best friend, thrivin' is what you're up to.

Running the App

If you'd like to try running the app locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone or download the repo: https://github.com/moonhighway/balanced-citizen.
2. Once you're in the repo (cd balanced-citizen), install the dependencies: npm i.
3. Create a file at the root of the project called env.local. Here you'll place your own environment variables. We've already filled in the NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_** sign in and sign up variables.

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=
CLERK_SECRET_KEY=
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_IN_URL=/sign-in
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_UP_URL=/sign-up
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_AFTER_SIGN_IN_URL=/
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_AFTER_SIGN_UP_URL=/
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=

4. This project uses Clerk for user authentication. You'll need a (free) Clerk account (Clerk.com)to retrieve these variables.
5. This project uses Supabase as a database. You'll also need a (free) Supabase account (Supabase.com) to grab these variables.
6. Once these are placed in the env.local file, run the project with npm run dev.

Known Issues & Things to Make Better

This is a demo app, and there are definitely things to make better!

1. Handle logins and database management for multiple users.
2. Create a data visualization to show the distribution of activities.
3. Better error handling for going over 24 hours in a day.
