Habit Tracker

For years, I've struggled to maintain the habit of running. I start for a while, but eventually my entusiasm wears off and the habit dies.

This habit tracker helps you sustain the habits that want to die.

Currently, the app...

• Helps you articulate your goals and anti-goals
• Reminds you to achieve your goal each day
• Helps you avoid downward spirals

In the future, it will also...

• Enforce public accountability

Two kinds of goals

There are two kinds of goals. The habit tracker only helps with the first:

✔ Goals to do something (ex. go for a run)

❌ Goals to NOT do something (ex. eat sugary foods)

Installation

The habit tracker is currently a work-in-progress. When it's ready for public use, it will be published on the Chrome Web Store. Until then, it can be installed in its alpha state by following these steps:

1. Download or clone this repository
2. Open chrome://extensions/
3. Turn on "Developer mode"
4. Click "Load unpacked"
5. Select this repository folder (from step 1)

Now when you open a new tab you'll see the extension running. :)
