Understanding Habit Tracking
Habit tracking leverages behavioral science: streaks reinforce dopamine loops via localStorage for daily check-ins, calculating sequences with date diffs (e.g., streak resets if greater than 1 day gap). Visuals use grids or charts to show adherence rates, promoting accountability without external validation.
Example: "Exercise" habit marked for 5 days → streak=5; miss → resets, but longest=5 preserved.
- Streak Logic: Consecutive Date.now() checks; handles timezones via UTC
- Progress Calc: Percentage = (completed days / total) * 100; filters by period
Based on Atomic Habits principles; uses JSON.parse/stringify for persistence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my habit tracking data saved?
Yes! Your habits and progress are automatically saved in your browser's local storage. This means your data persists between sessions but remains private to your device.
Can I export my habit data?
Absolutely! Click the 'Export Data' button to download your habit tracking data as a JSON file. You can use this for backup or analysis in other applications.
How are streaks calculated?
Streaks count consecutive days you've completed a habit. If you miss a day, the streak resets to 0. The tracker shows both current streak and longest streak achieved.
Can I track multiple habits?
Yes! Add as many habits as you want to track. Each habit maintains its own completion status and streak counter independently.
What if I clear my browser data?
Local storage will be cleared; export regularly as backups. For cross-device, use JSON import.
Does it support reminders?
Basic marking; for notifications, integrate with browser alarms or pair with external apps.
Privacy & Best Practices Considerations
