# Habitrax

A terminal-based personal development tracker combining habit building, productivity, and introspection into one unified system.

--- 

## What is Habitrax? 

Habitrax is a CLI app designed to help you:

- Track your tasks, productivity, and self-discipline
- Reflect daily with randomized deep questions 
- Monitor progress using gamified stats and leveling 
- Build powerful habits using philosophies from: 
  - Deep Work
  - Atomic Habits
  - Slight Edge
  - Think & Grow Rich
  - Shadow Work Journal 

> You don't just live life — you *level through it*. 

--- 

## Quickstart

```bash
git clone https://github.com/2kDarki/Habitrax.git 
cd Habitrax 
python run.py
```

or through pip:
```bash
pip install habitrax
Habitrax # or python -m hbx
```

> Requires Python 3.10+ installed. 

That's it — Habitrax runs out-of-the-box.

## Philosophy

Most productivity apps force structure on you.  
Habitrax does the opposite — it's a *sandbox for your goals, actions, and reflections.*

- Every decision is a vote toward your future self  
- Every session is data, analyzed and visualized for self-awareness  
- You define your purpose, rules, and trajectory  

---

## Core Modules

- Session Logging – Track tasks, time, focus, and productivity quality
- Debrief – Daily introspection with randomized deep questions
- Soul Work – Gratitude, philosophy, and "Slight Edge" voting
- Status Window – Gamified dashboard for categories and missions
- Notebook – Store insights, mantras, or journal entries
- Statistics – Filter and visualize productivity trends
- Missions – Self-defined goals with tracked completion
- Coffer – Manually track your finances
- Almanack – Define your chief aim and personal commandments

---

## Why Terminal?

- Built entirely on a smartphone as a *learning project*
- No external dependencies or frameworks
- Made for speed, clarity, and minimalism
- Focus is on function, not flash — every feature serves personal growth

## Suggested First Contributions

Even if you've never seen the code before, here are 2 tasks anyone can try:
- Improve Debrief Randomization – Add optional filters for categories
- Add a CLI Shortcut

These tasks are small, self-contained, and won't break the core functionality.
