Post Description
Hey HN,
I've had this idea stuck in my head ever since I published Year in Pixels [1]. I've been adding a little thing here and there to this app, and now it feels nice enough to share.
It's very interesting what daily tracking does to one's mind. While I already have apps to track everything else like sleep, heart rate, etc., I was still missing something to track my mood. The simple act of thinking about how you feel a couple of times a day already changes things. A moment of reflection.
I opted to add Astrology, Checks (habits), and other goodies. Hope you like it as much as I do.
Best, @kinduff
