Start Ember

A simple habit tracker that shows you the truth: are you showing up or not? Track daily check-ins, build streaks, and see your consistency compound—no gamification, just honest data.

Story Behind The Build

I wanted to learn drawing this year. The goal was simple: ten minutes every day.

The first few days went well. I'd sit down, sketch for ten minutes, and mark it off. But then life happened. Work got busy. I forgot a day. Then another.

So I tried the caveman approach—sticky notes on my desk. Every day I drew, I'd add a mark. Watching those little marks pile up felt good. It was working.

Until it wasn't.

Did I mark today already? Did I double-count yesterday? The sticky notes were getting messy. Tracking my habit was becoming a problem in itself.

That's when the developer in me kicked in: why not build something that does this properly?

What It Does

Daily Tracking — Check off habits as you complete them.

Streak Counters — Current streak, longest streak, total days. The app shows you if you're showing up.

Visual Calendar — 30-day history at a glance. Watch orange squares fill up as you stay consistent.
