A journal that feeds the numbers
Daily mood and a note, a year-in-pixels grid that needs no inline styles, and why mood is the series that makes insights worth having.
The journal is the smallest feature in this release and the one the others lean on. A mood from 1 to 5 and an optional line about the day.
Why mood matters to everything else
Insights compare things you log. Training, habits, sleep and food were already there, but none of them say how a day felt. Mood is the outcome most people care about, and with it the engine can answer questions like whether training days are better days. One tap a day is the price, so Today shows a mood card until you’ve given one.
A year in pixels, inside a strict CSP
The year view is twelve rows of up to 31 squares, coloured from flame for
a rough day to lime for a great one. The site and app ban inline styles
(style-src 'self', no unsafe-inline), so nothing is coloured with a
style attribute. Each mood maps to a utility class, and Tailwind
compiles those into the stylesheet.
It’s a real <table> with a caption and a row header per month, so a
screen reader can move through it by month and day. Colour is never the
only signal: each square’s label names the date and the mood (“Mar 3:
Good”), and a legend sits underneath.
Private like the rest
Notes are searchable, editable for the last 60 days (the same window as habits), included in the export, and visible to nobody but you. They never reach a feed, a group or a coach. The daily coach reads mood only as a number, and the app shows it only to you.

DesignThree moments to ask for an install, and only three
PaceStreak held back the browser's install prompt and then hardly ever offered its own. Now it asks on the first visit, on a later day and after the first session, once each, and Settings still works any time.
