For the team: From the term "personal dashboard," I was expecting something that would allow me to track data that's important to me, locally, like if I want to track my sleep stats and my spending and my food intake and whatever else. That's what "personal dashboard" means to me, and I was excited for a self-hosted, open source, clean way to do that.
Maybe that product exists, but sadly it has nothing to do with this one.
I just so happen to be working on one! It stemmed from my dissatisfaction with the existing meal tracking apps I’ve tried.
Initially I’d wanted to track spending as well but apps like YNAB cover this use-case better than I can in the near term so I struck it from the roadmap.
I’m trying to focus on health: meal planning and workout scheduling in a system flexible enough to make suggestions as your exercise regimen (and thus your nutritional requirements) change. Will also be looking into sleep tracking and other metrics.
Let me know if there’s anything else you’d want to see from an app like this. Happy to shoot you a link to the repo when the MVP gets off the ground.
I think most of the problem I run into is that I don't use a lot of mainstream services. Like, my step count, heart rate, and weight info isn't in FitBit and Google Health. It's in GadgetBridge and openScale. And I'm not syncing it to my computer with Dropbox or Google Drive. It happens through syncthing.
Most of my "system," if I can even call it that, is held together by a whole lot of duct tape and bubblegum and commands I ran one time that I found on StackOverflow.
I haven't updated this in years but this was my attempt at building a real time personal dashboard, connecting various API's and components.
Was pretty helpful for me, basically acted as a heads up display that I could look at to track my stats over the day (steps, meditation, focus time, etc.)
A link in bio is primarily used by social media influencers. It would usually link to their other social media pages, a merch website, and stuff like that. It solves the issue of most social media platforms only allowing one link
