Hey HN, after the app I actually used to track my period wanted me to log in and save my data in the cloud, I decided to write my own. Most apps in this area are based on a subscription model and display far too much information anyway. For me, a simple calendar is enough where I can add a few notes if necessary.

I'm also wondering if anybody has tips to make it more secure (I'm super super new to encryption and whatnot).
