WHERE TO?
Did I wake up at the mall, or inside a dream of one?
Either way, somebody left a key on my pillow, a bike under a cover started asking questions, and the only way to find out was to go.
I tried to squeeze the whole idea, and the whole trip, into the time limit: a guy farming aura all the way down to CapCut World LA, through a bay, a side quest, a wardrobe change he never asked for, and a city that can’t decide whether it’s real or rendered.
The credits ran out before the trip did. So the edit got creative: rescue cuts, two takes braided into one, and a render error that stayed in because it earned its place.
Whether he lands in Los Angeles or in the dream of it, you’ll have to watch.

A render error that stays in because it earned its place is a braver call than regenerating it. Same with braiding two takes into one: neither take was right on its own, the cut made it right.
A Gentle Rhythm
A calm portal for a child sleep consultant and the families she works with
One workspace instead of a pile of spreadsheets for every client.
Parents log sleep with one tap on their phone. The consultant sees the questionnaire, diary, calculations and plan in one place.
Why I built it
Right when the Base44 Challenge started, I got a new client: a child sleep consultant who needed a website.
My first thought was that she needed more than a website. She needed a real workspace.
Her work with each family involved:
An intake questionnaire in Google Forms.
A paper sleep diary that parents fill in, often at 3 a.m. with a baby in their arms.
An Excel spreadsheet with her own formulas, where she manually copies diary entries and calculates wake windows, naps and night sleep.
A new set of files for every new client.
I looked for a ready-made platform for this niche and couldn’t find one that fit her workflow. She needed more than a generic CRM or a parent-facing sleep tracker.
So I built A Gentle Rhythm.
Two connected spaces
01 · The consultant’s workspace
Available on the web and on her phone.
All families appear in one list, with clear statuses: waiting for the family, questionnaire to review, diary in progress.
Each child’s case brings together:
The intake questionnaire.
The sleep diary.
Sleep calculations and averages.
Private consultant notes.
The plan and its versions.
02 · The family’s space
A simple, invite-only space shared by both parents—and a grandparent, if needed.
Parents can add it to their phone’s home screen and open it like an app, without downloading it from the App Store or Google Play.
Each family sees only its own child.
How it works
Step 0 · Create a space for the family
The consultant creates a case with the child’s name, date of birth and programme length: 7, 14 or 28 days.
She sends an invitation link. The parent sets a password and confirms their email with a six-digit code.
Step 1 · Get to know the family
The intake questionnaire has five chapters: General, Sleep, Temperament, Expectations and Consent.
Parents answer one question at a time, using answer chips or their own words. Their progress is saved as they go.
Before submitting, they can review all their answers. The consultant then reads the questionnaire chapter by chapter and either marks it reviewed or returns it for changes.
Step 2 · Log sleep with one tap
Parents tap “Fell asleep” and “Woke up.”
The ring turns blue while the child sleeps and warm while awake. A short follow-up asks what helped the child fall asleep: two taps, or Skip.
Both parents see the same timer live. Accidental taps can be undone, and each entry shows who logged it.
Step 3 · Let the diary do the calculations
The diary builds itself, with one line per day running from 18:00 to 18:00.
Using the consultant’s own Excel formulas, the app calculates:
Wake windows.
Naps.
Night sleep.
The longest sleep stretch.
Total sleep over 24 hours.
Averages include only complete days selected by the consultant.
She can review the Durations table on her computer or phone. If a family has a question, “Preview as family” opens their space so she can see exactly what they see.
When she needs a spreadsheet, she can export a real .xlsx file in one click.
Step 4 · Write the plan beside the diary
The consultant writes the plan alongside the diary: a letter to the family, target wake windows and tasks for the week.
Drafts stay private. When she publishes a new version, the family sees it immediately.
Step 5 · Follow progress day by day
The family keeps logging sleep. The week view brings together nights, wake windows against the plan and “before → now” progress as the programme continues.
What it saves
For the consultant
No copying paper diaries into Excel. No manual wake-window calculations. No separate set of files for every client. No chasing photos of diary pages in messengers.
One workspace for all her families.
For parents
No tables to fill in at night.
One tap. One hand. In the dark.
How I built it
Her real materials came first
I started with the consultant’s Google Form, paper diary and Excel spreadsheet.
I worked through every formula, built a test day and checked the app against her spreadsheet, number by number, until the results matched.
Design before code
Before building the app, I created a design system with:
Night and day themes.
One consistent colour rule: blue means asleep, warm means awake.
The night and dawn sky backgrounds are my own images, created with Midjourney.
Built with Base44 and Claude Code
Base44 built the application: the database, authentication, access rules and screens.
Claude Code was my design partner. It helped write the design system and implementation prompts, analyse the spreadsheets and test the live site in a real browser—checking screens, console errors and calculations.
21 batches of improvements
Credits were limited, so I grouped each round of fixes into one structured batch for Base44.
The first working version took 21 batches.
Privacy
Families join only by invitation.
Database access rules restrict parents to their own family’s records. I tested this with a second account.
The consultant’s private notes and unpublished plan drafts remain visible only to her.
All names and data in the demo are fictional.
Current stage and what’s next
This is the first working version.
The next step is for the consultant to start using it with real clients.
Longer term, A Gentle Rhythm could become a platform for other sleep consultants, each with their own practice and families.

So cool project 🚀🚀 good luck 🤞🏻
Local businesses—from neighborhood bakeries and specialty coffee roasters to barbershops and lounges—spend years building 5-star reputations on Google Maps. Yet their actual websites are often broken, outdated, or non-existent, costing them direct bookings and forcing them to pay hefty third-party platform fees.
The Solution: DimensionLocal (Built on Base44)
DimensionLocal transforms any raw Google Maps listing into both a tactile 3D neighborhood discovery experience and a production-ready, high-converting flagship website in seconds.
Key Design & Engineering Highlights:
Infinite 2D/3D Spatial Neighborhood Canvas: Instead of a static landing page, the homepage is an infinite, seamlessly wrapping cartography board populated with volumetric 3D storefronts. Each shop dynamically reflects real-world status—cycling through live venue photos when open, or dropping physical roller shutters when closed.
Live Google Places API Extraction: Paste any Google Maps URL or search any business worldwide. The backend automatically pulls high-resolution place photos, aggregate ratings, customer testimonials, 7-day Monday–Sunday schedules, phone numbers, and exact coordinates.
4 Polymorphic Website Archetypes: No two businesses look the same. With one click, any storefront transforms across 4 complete design systems:
Obsidian Flagship: Dark carbon & champagne gold luxury one-pager.
Spatial Glass: Frosted acrylic cards over an ambient blurred aura generated from the venue's own photography.
Tactile Craft: Warm limestone paper, exposed architectural grids, and mechanical offset shadows.
Swiss Editorial: High-contrast gallery typography and asymmetric lookbook layouts.
Closed-Loop Automation & Owner OS: Customers can book tables or appointments directly on the generated microsite. Flipping to the Owner Automation OS reveals a live reservation dispatch pipeline, local competitor radar analysis, and an AI Review Autopilot that drafts tailored responses to customer reviews in one click.
Built With:
Base44 (Frontend UI, Database, Backend Functions & AI Superagents), Google Places API (New), CSS 3D Transforms & Custom SVG Cartography.
The 3D infinite map is insane 🔥 rolling up the closed shutters sold me.
