phokus-notepad

My biggest project yet... or maybe my first actual project

What is Phokus tho?

Well, Phokus is a small project I decided to start. The whole idea was to make a notepad that actively penalized the user for getting distracted. It slowly evolved from that to a text editor that not only roasts you for having the attention span of the average Gen Alpha kid, but one that also praises you for staying focused on the actual goal. phokus main pic

What I've done so far

Right now the notepad only blurs for a few seconds when the user changes tabs. Not very evil, huh?
The above line is from a few weeks ago. I've added more things, but the highlight of the new features so far is the achievements you unlock for discipline (and ADHD) phokus achievements pic Try to catch all the references (if you can 😏)

Features to be added in the future

  • Distraktion counter: Not a spelling error.
  • Wordcount Milestones: Celebrates the user for typing a certain number of words.
  • Fade out timer: Notepad starts fading out when the user stops typing for too long. I also plan to add a loud sound or something like that.
  • Deep Mode: When enabled, all the content in the notepad gets deleted upon switching tabs. Yes, even in localStorage

Look, the CSS is like 90% AI-generated because life is too short to center a div. I’d rather spend my brain cells on actual JavaScript logic, thank you very much.

I won't be merging any pull requests that change too much of the core mechanics of the program. Small bug fixes would be much appreciated tho. I'mma go get me a slice of bread now.
