      RescueTime statistics: 11h 18m (35% productive)

      Didn't really read through Chapter 15 / 31 today. Might need a library booster tomorrow. Also having to get used to a productivity tool that doesn't enforce a process lock on /etc/hosts, and therefore allows me to bypass things myself. I talked to my little brother and he says he just keeps busy with enough work and it'll be fine. So. Yeah. We'll see what happens tomorrow I guess.

    Yesterday was spend with the family. Today I’ve resumed work on the Svelte powered next-gen version of Doka.

    I plan to have ticked all these feature tests on the prototype by the end of the month.

    • Configuration flexibility
    • Smaller footprint
    • Easier to extend
    • Faster render engine for DOM and WebGL
    • Redesign of the crop data object
    • Headless mode

    If all that works I’m good to spend the rest of Q1 on fine-tuning the UI/UX
