Description
Sundial (岁时) draws today, this week, this month, this year and your whole life as rows of marks on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. Ink for what has passed, one vermilion stroke for now, grey for what is ahead. The Chinese name 岁 once meant Jupiter, which ancient astronomers used to count years. A year was first something you saw, not something you counted. That is the whole idea. One-person app. No accounts, no ads, nothing collected.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Agriculture yet.
