       | 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,

       | 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?

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

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

         | 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.

         | A pwa doesn't need an Internet connection. That's part of the
         | definition of the term. Are you confusing the term with SPA?

       | 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:
