Show HN: Kill List–A local-first PWA where tasks deletes if not done by midnight

#1

Post by msldiarra »

Hey HN, I built this because standard to-do lists let me hoard tasks forever. I wanted a 'use it or lose it' mechanic. The Tech: SvelteKit (Static) Dexie.js (IndexedDB wrapper) for client-side storage Web Audio API for the procedural sounds No account required, no server tracking (except privacy-preserving PostHog). Source code is messy but the logic is simple. Would love feedback on the offline-sync strategy.

OP here. I built this because I found standard todo apps too forgiving. It's a local-first PWA built with SvelteKit and Dexie.js (IndexedDB). The Mechanic: Tasks have a hard deadline (Midnight). If not swiped ('Killed') by then, they are permanently deleted. The Stack: SvelteKit (Static), Tailwind, Howler.js (Audio), Dexie.js. Privacy: No account required. Data lives on your device. It's an experiment in 'loss aversion' productivity. Roast my code or the philosophy.
