Habit Tracker Web App with Streak Analytics

This project builds a habit-tracking web app with tappable daily check-ins, per-habit streak counters, a weekly completion chart, a 14-week activity heatmap, completion-by-habit and best-time-of-day analytics, plus an achievements system with badges and a milestones timeline. Six realistic habits make every chart believable, and the warm editorial design keeps the interface encouraging. Suitable for B.E./B.Tech final-year projects in Computer Science, IT and Web Development.

The problem

Habit apps live or die on one mechanic: the streak — a visible chain of days the user refuses to break. This project builds Streakly, a complete habit tracker around that psychology. The Today view lists six realistic habits (morning run, reading, meditation, no-sugar, coding, journaling) with schedules, categories and tappable check-in circles that toggle state live, each row showing its current streak and best streak. The Analytics view opens with summary cards (87% completion, 41-day longest streak, 312 check-ins, 6 perfect weeks), then a 14-week activity heatmap, completion-by-habit bars and a best-time-of-day chart on canvas. The Achievements view awards five earned badges plus one locked goal, with a milestones timeline of the user's journey. Every number is computed from the habit dataset, so the student can trace each figure to its source at the viva.

How it works

  1. The app loads a habit dataset: six habits with schedules, categories, streaks and check-in states.
  2. The Today view renders check-in rows; tapping a circle toggles that habit's state and re-renders the list.
  3. Summary cards aggregate the dataset into completion rate, longest streak, total check-ins and perfect weeks.
  4. Canvas helpers draw the weekly completion bars and the time-of-day chart; the heatmap grid is generated from activity data.
  5. Per-habit completion bars rank habits by their 30-day rates.
  6. The Achievements view renders badges with locked/unlocked states and the milestones timeline from event records.

Tech stack:

  • HTML5, CSS3, vanilla JavaScript (ES6)
  • Canvas 2D API for weekly and time-of-day charts
  • Generated heatmap grid (no library)
  • Warm editorial theme
  • Static deployment (no server or database)

Project features

  • [Daily check-ins] Tappable circles toggle each habit's state with instant visual feedback.
  • [Streak tracking] Per-habit current streak and best-streak records, plus a 23-day header pill.
  • [Weekly completion chart] Canvas bars showing completion percentage per weekday with the best day highlighted.
  • [Activity heatmap] 14-week grid with intensity shading, GitHub-contributions style.
  • [Habit analytics] Completion-by-habit bars and best-time-of-day chart from the check-in data.
  • [Achievements] Six badges with earned/locked states and a milestones timeline.
  • [Warm editorial design] Encouraging cream-and-orange aesthetic instead of clinical fitness-app chrome.

What is included

  • Complete source code (single-file tracker with all views)
  • Realistic habit dataset with streaks and activity history
  • Canvas chart and heatmap generators
  • Setup guide (adding habits, localStorage persistence)
  • Project report PDF (behavioral design, aggregation, methodology)
  • PPT presentation for final review
  • Viva Q&A preparation document (gamification, data viz, state)

Limitations & prerequisites

  • Check-in state resets on reload in the demo; localStorage persistence is a documented extension.
  • Streaks and history are demo data, not the user's real activity.
  • No reminders, notifications or social features in this build.
  • Single-user only; no accounts or cross-device sync.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are streaks computed?

Each habit carries a current streak and a best streak; the header pill shows the active 23-day chain. The logic counts consecutive check-in days from the activity data.

What does the heatmap show?

Fourteen weeks of daily activity with intensity shading — darker cells mean more habits completed that day, exactly like a contributions graph.

Can I add my own habits?

Yes. A habit is one object with name, schedule, category and streak fields; the Today list, analytics and badges all read from the same array.

How do badges unlock?

Milestone events (7-day streak, 30-day streak, 100 check-ins and so on) flip badges from locked to earned; the timeline narrates each milestone.

What will I learn?

Gamification design, aggregation logic, heatmap visualization and consumer-app UI polish.

Is this project suitable for a final-year project?

Yes — for Computer Science, IT and Web Development programs. It demonstrates data-driven UI and behavioral product design. Suitable for B.E./B.Tech final-year projects in Computer Science, IT and Web Development.
