iCanDoIt

A daily planner for macOS — write down what you want to get done today, attach a little reward to each task, and celebrate when you finish everything.

Features

• Morning ritual — every day starts with one question: What do you want to get done today?
• Boards per life track — keep Job hunt, LeetCode, Fitness and whatever else on separate boards, each with its own emoji and open-task count. All shows everything at once.
• Three zoom levels — switch between Today / Week / Month. The week view is 7 day columns plus a This Week goals list; the month view is week columns (with a daily rollup) plus This Month goals. Page back and forth to plan ahead.
• Drag & drop — drag a card to another day to reschedule, drop it between cards to reorder, promote it into the week/month goals list, or drop it on a board chip to move it to another board. Today's list supports precise drag reordering too.
• Editable tasks — double-click any card or row to change its title, reward, and urgency
• Urgent flag — flagged cards get a red edge and badge without overriding your manual ordering
• Reward yourself — attach an optional reward to each task ("an iced americano", "one episode of my show"…)
• Perfect Day — finish everything and get a confetti celebration listing all the rewards you've earned
• Streaks & stats — current/best streak, total done, perfect days
• Consistency map — a GitHub-style heatmap of your last 6 months, with custom hover tooltips
• Window appearance — behind-window frosted glass via NSVisualEffectView, an animated aurora background, trackpad haptics
• Local-first — data lives in a local SwiftData (SQLite) store; no network, no accounts

Build & install

Requires Xcode (tested with Xcode 26 / Swift 6.3, macOS 15+).

./build.sh                      # builds and packages build/iCanDoIt.app
cp -R build/iCanDoIt.app /Applications/

Builds as a plain Swift Package (SwiftUI + SwiftData) with a packaging script.

Dev self-check modes

Two hidden flags. The first renders every screen to PNGs off-screen (verifying visuals without screen-recording permissions):

.build/debug/iCanDoIt --snapshot /tmp/snaps

The second asserts the logic that a screenshot can't prove — drag-and-drop placement, schema backfill, stats:

.build/debug/iCanDoIt --selftest

Tech notes

• SwiftUI + SwiftData — a plain Swift package, no .xcodeproj
• Frosted glass via NSVisualEffectView (.fullScreenUI, behind-window) with a thin tint so the desktop shows through
• Confetti is a pure-SwiftUI Canvas particle system
• The heatmap flattens its 182 shadowed cells into one GPU texture (drawingGroup) so screen transitions don't drop frames
• Icon is generated programmatically by scripts/make_icon.swift
