Neat. Is there a way to backup or save results? I currently use Jefit on Android but have noticed the enshittification creeping in. It probably won't be long before seeing any historical data requires a monthly subscription.

This is what all web apps should be like: Zero barrier to entry, loads instantly, self explanatory UI, privacy first. While I probably won't use it to track workouts, it only took me a few seconds to evaluate.

Complexity will set in as you allow users to import, export, and sync data. But based on the great start you have here, I bet you can pull it off.

Neat that it's to the point - but some information would be welcome. Where is the date stored, for one. Future pricing?

Good idea, but I don't want to rely on an internet connection for this. I'd also just prefer to own the data.

I use a simple Seinfeld-style habit tracker for mine:

Workout tracking is a fun project. It's relatively simple in scope and you can customize it for an audience of 1 -- I did something similar to brush up on RN development:

I love this app, I've used it many times in the past for tracking habits.

Just want to point out that its also open source and available on F-Droid.

Would love if I could self-host this with Docker.

I can't open this in Brazil, any barriers to do so? Nor does the link shows up on Google.

I love this app, except that it takes FOREVER to reach "100%."

If I've completed a habit every day for even 10 days, I want my 100%, but this required more than 200 when I used it.
