What it does
Most habit trackers make one missed day feel like failure. Habit Arc helps you build or reduce habits, recover at the next repetition, and keep your data on your phone. Free, offline, no account, no analytics.
Habit Arc is a local-first Android habit tracker for building or reducing habits with reminders, recovery-friendly check-ins, and growth feedback.
Build or reduce habits with reminders, Daily check-in, and Growth feedback that helps you recover instead of starting over. Too many habit apps reduce progress to streaks and make a bad day feel like proof that everything is slipping. I wanted something I would actually use myself: private, non-judgmental, and focused on consistency, recovery, and the small wins that compound over time. Built for private, non-shaming consistency, not for social accountability, gamification, or cross-device cloud sync.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
