What it does

Lightweight is a workout tracker for people who actually lift. No streaks. No badges. No social feed. No "level up your fitness journey" nonsense. Just a clean log for sets, reps, and weights — with last session's numbers as placeholders so you know exactly what to beat. Offline-first, works in any gym Anonymous by default, optional Apple backup Built around progressive overload Just pump some iron.

A workout tracker for people who take lifting seriously. Built like industrial gear — one accent, no exceptions.

Every feature earns its place. If it doesn't help you log a set or hit the next PR, it isn't in the app. Three things, done right. No confetti. No "You crushed it!" No trophies. When you hit a PR, the weight gets bigger, the number flashes, and the app moves on. That's it. The active session screen is built for one hand, gloves on, sweat in your eyes. Tap the row, punch the reps, hit log. Rest timer counts. Next set loads. Large numbers. Flat surfaces. One accent color that means "this is what's next." Nothing that looks good in a screenshot but gets in your way at 6am. Tell it your days, level, equipment, and what you're chasing. It builds a routine tailored to you — no templates, no…from lightweight-app.com

    After decades of tracking my exercise programs in progressively more complex spreadsheets I eventually burned out on metrics and complicated periodization programs to the point where I had almost stopped exercising. I am now at a place where I simply want the minimal amount of structure and tracking to make sure I can maintain my fitness, so I boiled the entire concept down to what I felt was its essence: enough information and structure to remind you of what is needed today, and how it went on the same exercises last week. To reduce friction, the interface is kept as simple as possible.…

  • With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
