genee is a simple habit tracker program for the command line
## Features
- Daily tracking of habits 📅
- Open storage format: SQLite database 📄
- Pretty diagrams to compare successive periods of habit data 📊
- Store default settings persistently 💾
## Workflow
1. Figure out the list of habits to track. In this example, we would like to restrict
our gaming binges and increase the frequency of our piano exercise sessions.
`GAM` stands for gaming, whereas `PNO` stands for the instrumental practice.
2. Download the [latest release](https://github.com/mfep/genee/releases/latest) from this repository.
3. Using the downloaded executable, create a new data file to store the diary data.
Specify the list of habit abbreviations to use in this file: `genee new GAM,PNO`
4. Each day, fill in whether you practiced the particular habits the previous day or not.
Run `genee` which opens an interactive terminal interface. Habit data for each day can be
added and edited, and various statistics are shown.
