Focus City
New screen, pulls from the same session table the charts already use. Each completed focus block adds a floor to a building; the project with the most logged hours gets the tallest one. Hit your daily goal and a new building goes up next to it. Break your streak and growth pauses — it doesn't tear anything down, but nothing new gets built either.
Wanted a way to look at "did I actually work today" without opening the stats tab and reading numbers. This is that, at a glance, from the sidebar.
Calendar: tasks, events, reminders, birthdays, notes
Used to be just due dates on tasks. Now it's a real month grid with five item types, each with its own colour dot, and recurrence rules from "once" up to "every 15 days" or yearly (for birthdays, mainly). Double-click a day to add something; click once to see what's already there. Anything you pin shows up in a small list next to the timer, so you're not tabbing over to check.
Localization + theming pass
Added Português and Español (English was the only option before). Also let you pick your own font and one accent colour that applies to the timer ring and the small UI marks — no theme picker with ten presets, just the one colour that matters. Sidebar is now resizable and collapses to icon-only if you want more screen. Always-on-top is there too, for anyone who wants the ring visible over everything else.
Stats dashboard
This took longer than expected because every chart is a real matplotlib/seaborn plot rendered on a background thread, not some canned charting library — cumulative hours over time, focus by hour of day and by weekday, session length distribution per project, a start-time scatter, a density map. Plus an hoverable streak heatmap and stacked daily bars broken down by project. Profile section keeps lifetime/weekly/monthly totals even after you archive a project, since we don't delete the underlying sessions.
Tasks got goals, priorities, and queues
Tasks were just names before. Now each one has a goal field, a planned size in focus blocks, and an A/B/C priority you cycle with a click. You can drag to reorder, hover any task to start it directly, or queue a whole project and Grind runs through it — the ring shows "Block 2 of 4" so you know where you are. Added a Done button too, for when you finish a block early and want to roll straight into the next task instead of waiting out the timer.
1.0 — the first block
What shipped in the first version: one timer ring, 50 minutes focus / 10 minutes break by default (both configurable), projects and tasks, a daily goal, a streak counter. SQLite underneath, and a crash-recovery snapshot that writes every few seconds so closing the app mid-block — or it crashing — never costs you more than a few seconds of unsaved time. Dark theme, one accent colour, no onboarding tour. Works offline from the first launch, no account needed.
Why there's no notifications tab
Kept getting asked to add push notifications, a mobile companion app, maybe a browser extension. Deliberately not doing any of that. The whole point of Grind is that it doesn't compete for your attention outside of the fifty minutes you opened it for — no badges, no "come back" emails, nothing running in the background pulling you out of whatever else you're doing. If a feature request works against that, it's a no, even when it'd be an easy add.
