harsh is habit tracking for geeks. A minimalist, command line tool for tracking, understanding, and forging habits.
Succinctly: it’s quick, simple, and gets out of your way. And gives you excellent visibility on your habits.
There are only 3 commands: log, ask, and todo.
Designed for simplicity, visibility, and longevity, harsh uses simple text files for tracking that are human-grokable and editable in your favourite text editor. It’s simpler, less messy, and more portable than commercial or mobile applications and less fussy to manage than emacs habit tracking (imho). While quantified individual tracking is exhaustive (and exhausting), important habits get lost in the data deluge, so this provides deliberate and explicit habits to track and progress.
This is free and open source software.
