Most productivity apps are built around managing tasks. I wanted to explore a different idea - what if the app was built around staying focused instead?Working on this, I realized losing focus rarely comes from not knowing what to do. More often, it's the small interruptions between planning and actually starting that break momentum.
So I combined task management, pomodoro sessions, and progress tracking into one uninterrupted workflow. The goal wasn't more productivity features - it was fewer decisions standing between you and getting into deep work.
From the minimal interface to the integrated focus sessions, every decision came back to that one idea: less time managing work, more time doing it.

The last couple of days have been challenging for me, and they inspired me to think about a problem many of us eventually face: starting over.
Whether it's losing a job, graduating, moving to a new city, going through a breakup, recovering from an illness, or simply entering a new chapter in life, the hardest part is often knowing what to do next.
That inspired me to design Restart.
Restart is a life transition app that helps people navigate major life changes with a personalized roadmap instead of overwhelming to-do lists. It breaks big goals into small, achievable steps, offers guidance through an AI mentor, tracks progress, and celebrates every small win along the way.
I built this prototype for the Flowstep Challenge, focusing on creating an experience that feels calm, supportive, and practical. My goal was to design something that could genuinely help someone regain momentum during a difficult transition.
I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback.

this is a great concept!
TinyWins started from a simple belief: we spend too much time waiting for big achievements to feel proud of ourselves.
Inspired by Charlie Rocket's idea of the Winning Streak, I wanted to create an app where every small positive action counts as a real win. Whether it's drinking a glass of water, taking a short walk, reading a few pages, or simply taking a moment to breathe, every tiny action helps you build momentum instead of waiting for motivation.
I designed the entire experience in Flowstep, focusing on making it feel more like a cozy adventure game than a traditional habit tracker. Every companion, floating island, and collectible reward was generated with AI, then brought to life using Gemini Omni video generation to create subtle living animations. Finally, I used Claude Code to transform the designs into a fully interactive web app.
The result is a product where progress feels alive—because success isn't one life-changing moment, it's a collection of tiny wins.
Bringing data to the deadlifts. 🏋️♂️ I just wrapped up the landing page for a brand new fitness app coming soon tailored for gym enthusiasts. The core concept is simple but powerful: giving users the ability to automatically log and save their workout sets straight into a sleek, manageable spreadsheet. Loved dialing in the design to make tracking as frictionless as possible. Check it out! 👇
