# OS
This is a set of productivity scripts bash/python to create a "life operating system."
Inspired mainly by August Bradley's Notion PPV system (which I previously built inside of Anytype).
The issue with Anytype (and Notion) is that there are too many clicks needed.
While Notion has better automation, I think nothing can beat the functionality of just scripts.
That and the fact that I want to have all the files as markdown in case I want to search/collect statistics or plots/process with a local llm inspired this project.
## Functionality and status
Here is the list of functionality that I'm working towards.
- [x] Cycles: Basic task weekly task log with history stored in a task.md file.
- [x] Habits: Keep track of habits and metrics in a habits.md file
- [x] Weekly Review: Review habits/completed actions and write some notes for each week.
- [ ] Monthly Review: Review habits/completed actions/and weekly accomplishments and update plans for each month.
- [ ] Vault: Knowledge vault for tracking notes
- [ ] Projects: Project management file that can be synced to pull tasks associated with the project and links to notes from vaults.
- [ ] Daily Mindset Shaping: Generates a view into a daily routine for mindset shaping.
