Habitica, an innovative daily planning app, takes a unique approach to task management by transforming your daily routine into an exciting role-playing game (RPG). Combining the principles of gamification and productivity, Habitica offers a refreshing and engaging way to stay organized, motivated, and on track with your goals. With its intuitive interface and vibrant visuals, this app turns mundane tasks and habits into thrilling quests and challenges.

habitica: this app turns your life into a role-playing game, with your tasks and habits to complete/achieve.

Works with Habitica (https://habitica.com/), an app that turns habits into RPG games! When reviewing with Anki, you can earn experience and items. (Habitica is also free)

> From these experiences, I’ve realized that avoiding bad habits is just as important as cultivating good habits.

Avoidance rarely works i think. I'd say replacing negative habits with positive ones is a better long term strategy.

Can recommend the App Habitica for this, free and open source. There are Android and iOS clients for it. Makes habits dailies and todos more fun.

Not affiliated, only fixed an accessibility issue once.

For everyone who does not know Habitica: it's a gamified task list where you can get coins for tasks and buy virtual pets (or your own custom rewards) for them. It's available on pretty much every platform. Guilds are groups for like-minded people, a little like subreddits. They're useful for holding each other accountable or just chatting about features and stuff. If you're new to Habitica and want to join, feel free as well!

Something like Ring Fit Adventure is probably out since you don't have much money to throw around, but you could try a "life RPG" type app like Habatica, rewarding yourself for keeping up on the habits you want to encourage. And it's free! Not sure if maybe there are general workout apps that make it feel like a game.

Habitica is pretty good. If you're into pixel arts and gamification. It has good community behind it to.

hmm get an instant pot, cook alot, and jump rope. It burns alot of calories per minute, and use habitica.com. It's an app that makes your life into an rpg. you can even join a guild with guys who want to get fit!

As someone who has looked at Shoes several times but never dove in, it's confusing how Shoes 4 has been the "preview version" of Shoes for, like, a decade or more. It made me actively avoid getting invested in Shoes 3 (the release promoted on the linked website) because Shoes 4 requires JRuby and I am happy with CRuby (the Ruby interpreter most people think of when they hear "Ruby").

No disrespect to the developers but to me it feels like taking over a GUI toolkit created "to teach programming to everyone" (to quote the Shoes 4 readme) and making it depend upon a super-complicated enterprise-focused Ruby was sort of Missing The Point™ in a huge way.

Heck I couldn't even switch to JRuby if I wanted to because I <3 Ractors and JRuby still lacks CRuby 3.0 feature parity: https://github.com/jruby/jruby/issues/7459

__callee__ now properly returns the name under which a method was called, which will be the new name in the case of aliased methods. #2305, #7702

Issue tracker: https://github.com/jruby/jruby/issues

rdoc has been updated to 6.3.3 to fix all known CVEs. (#7396, #7404)

Altering the visibility of an included module method no longer changes what super method gets called. (#7240, #7343, #7344, #7356)

It looks like the readme is copy pasta from jruby: https://github.com/jruby/jruby

Chris: Yeah, that's exactly right. So I was working at Sun at the time. I remember the JRuby guys. I saw them speak at one of the Java conferences, and they came to work for Sun. Just listening to them talk about JRuby...and then a lot of it was obviously about Ruby on Rails at the time. And I was like, wow, this was just mind-blowing the way they talked about it.

In fact, I built its GUI twice with two different approaches, one using the up and coming Glimmer DSL for LibUI on CRuby relying on a multi-canvas-grid (LibUI area) approach, and one using the very mature Glimmer DSL for SWT on JRuby by relying on a button-grid approach.
