In Projects and apps I built for my own well-being I mentioned projects that already exist and are relatively stable. This post will focus on the stuff I'm actively developing and hope to eventually share, and on the things that I hope one day someone smarter than me will build!
In my work I want to be kind and curious, and these ideas would fall under the umbrella of kind software. Here's a working definition (I'll flesh it out more in a future update).
Wishlist
I'll come up with nicer names, I promise.
Mental Health Toolbox (working title)
A mobile/web-app with a list of tools you can reach out to when you're feeling down, stressed, anxious, low on motivation. It's highly personalised and co-created with the user.
It's very low-tech. In fact you can imagine it as a deck of Pokemon/MtG cards, where each card is a thing you can do or think of to get out of your own head and respond to whatever challenge lies ahead of you, constructively.
Pickle
A metronome for my attention (not a timer, not a trademark-protected nightshade).
The main features include an adaptive task/rest cycle duration, allowing me to switch context quickly and work within the rhythm of my own attention span.
An everything canvas
An infinite canvas/thinking tool that doesn't operate on images, text, media, but objects. An object could be static like a media file or a piece of text, but it could also be a small computer program, or a primitive dealing with transforming information.
Pierogi
A voice/thought recorder for accent-challenged people like myself.
