Personal Operating Dashboard
Overview
A single-page operating system for the working day, built in-house and used daily. It holds the schedule, the standing rules, and a set of small tools that would otherwise be ten open browser tabs.
The design brief was almost entirely about restraint. A dashboard someone opens at seven in the morning cannot be loud, so the interface runs near-black with one accent color, monospace labels, and a single editorial serif carrying the daily quote.
Ten utilities live behind the front page, covering everything from a breathing exercise to a cold call script to a macro calculator, each one a full screen rather than a widget.

Single Page, Many Screens
A client-side router moves between ten full-screen tools with no page loads.
- 02
Built for Seven AM
Near-black palette, monospace labels, and one accent color that never competes.
- 03
Time-Blocked Schedule
The day laid out as three named blocks with the reasoning for each one attached.

Standing Rules
Training, work, food, and sleep committed to the page so they stop being decisions.
Productivity apps fail because they ask you to maintain them. This one is deliberately opinionated and mostly static, with the rules written down once and the tools sitting one tap away.
The screenshots here show the design and the tooling. The live task list and health tracking panels are personal and have been left out of the capture.
