Choose the next small thing
Projects can turn into very long lists. Today gives me a smaller set to work from, with a timer and the project context close by.

Life OS
A private place for my projects, daily plans, ideas, and garden records. I’m building it around the things I actually do.

More than a task list.
Planting dates, progress photos, and weighed harvests build a record of the season.
These climbing French beans account for 231 g in the published snapshot.

The project
Somewhere to keep the threads together
Remember what changed
A board holds the tasks. Work sessions and project views help me see what happened and where to pick things up again.
Keep the garden in the picture
A photo, a planting date, or a harvest weight is worth keeping too. The garden has its own record, alongside the software and hardware projects.
A little about how it’s built
Life OS is a Next.js app with an installable mobile view. Cognito handles sign-in; Amplify connects the browser to project data and photo storage. An offline queue keeps supported changes until the connection comes back.
Next ideaA private home and a public window
I’d like to write a project update in Life OS, choose a photo, and decide whether to share it here. The private workspace would hold the full record; this website would show the selected stories.
That publishing connection is still an idea to explore. For now, these pages are maintained separately.
