This is a submission for the GitHub Copilot Challenge : New Beginnings Backstory Being a productivity nerd, I’ve tried out dozens of productivity apps starting from ones that block websites to habit trackers but I’ve always felt something missing in all of them.

ProgressPals: Your last productivity app

This is a submission for the GitHub Copilot Challenge : New Beginnings

Backstory

Being a productivity nerd, I’ve tried out dozens of productivity apps starting from ones that block websites to habit trackers but I’ve always felt something missing in all of them. Remember a day before exam during school, we all could easily focus even 10+ hours each day but rest of the time even forgetting to check off habits from habit tracker.

Yes, it’s because of accountability and the fear of losing (being seen as a failure in front of someone) that’s why we could focus before exams but not on everyday matters.

Hence I build — ProgressPals.
