Trace: Goals and Journals

privacy first minimalist habit tracker and journal

What it does

Most habit apps overwhelm you with features you'll never use. Trace doesn't. Add your goals, check them off, done. Watch your streaks grow with milestone badges at 7, 30, 100, and 365 days. Capture thoughts in the built-in journal. Review your week with Weekly Wrapped insights. No sign-up required, open the app and start building better habits today. 100% offline, 100% private.

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
