Re:PulseDaily – a local-first, no-login habit tracker on Thursday January 15, 2026 @05:06AM (#46630469)
Hi HN! I built PulseDaily, a mobile‑first habit tracker that runs entirely in your browser (localStorage). No signup, no accounts.

  Highlights:

  - 3‑state daily check‑ins with a “momentum” bar that counts only fully done habits
  - Custom interval reminders with optional sound (Notification API + WebAudio)
  - Shareable starter templates (e.g., /templates/study) that one‑click import habits

  Live: https://pulsedaily.codezs.online/

  I’m the maker. Would love feedback on the first‑time experience, reminders, and what templates you’d want next.
Hi HN — I built PulseDaily, a simple mobile‑first habit tracker that runs entirely in your browser (no account, localStorage).

  It’s designed for “zero friction” daily check‑ins:

  - Add/edit/delete habits quickly
  - 3‑state daily check (none/partial/full) + momentum bar
  - Local backup/export
  - Interval reminders (browser notifications + optional beep sound), with customizable reminders
  - Starter templates you can import in one click: /templates

  I’d love feedback on the UX and what would make it actually stick for you (e.g., better onboarding, templates,
  reminder UX, export/import, etc.). If you try it, please tell me what felt confusing or missing.
