This page follows the /now page movement: a simple way to share what is currently getting the most attention.

Rhythme

I am simplifying Rhythme's daily interface. I found that having too many custom options made planning feel like work, so I am stripping the app down to just a calendar list, habits checklist, and reflection text box.

What I'm learning

I'm learning how to handle optimistic updates in Next.js. I want the checkbox to check instantly when clicked, even if the user has a slow mobile connection to Supabase.

What I'm optimizing for

Code readability and clean folder structures. I'm cleaning up my git commits and standardizing file structures to make future updates easier.

Mindset

Steady work over quick progress.

I am focused on writing readable code and planning database changes on paper before writing code. Taking an extra hour to clarify a problem usually saves two days of rewriting code.
