I built daily.place – a small browser app to focus, plan, and breathe 🌿
Hey everyone 👋
I’m Agustín, a developer from Argentina. I created a side project called daily.place
— a simple, browser-based workspace where you can focus, organize your day, and maybe relax a bit too.
It’s free, works right in your browser, and doesn’t ask you to sign up or create an account.
🧠 The idea
I was constantly opening 3 or 4 different tabs:
- one for a Pomodoro timer,
- another for to-do lists,
- another for background sounds,
- and somehow I’d still end up checking Twitter 🙃
So I thought — what if I could put all those small things in one clean page? Nothing fancy, just a quiet place to focus. That’s how daily.place started.
⚙️ What it does
Here’s what’s inside:
- 🕐 Pomodoro timer with short & long breaks (customizable).
- ✅ To-do list — super simple, all stored locally.
- 🎧 Ambient sound mixer — you can blend rain, café, waves, white noise, etc.
- ⌨️ Keyboard shortcuts for quick actions.
- 🌙 Dark mode for night sessions.
Everything is saved locally in your browser — no servers, no accounts, no tracking. You just open it and start.
💡 Why I built it
Honestly, I built it for myself first. I wanted a place that felt calm, like sitting down with a coffee and saying “okay, let’s do this.”
I didn’t want another app full of analytics, logins, and subscriptions. I just wanted something that loads fast and stays out of my way.
Now it’s become my go-to tab whenever I start working.
🚀 Try it out
Go to daily.place
Pick a “place name” (like Work, Study, FocusZone — whatever you want).
That name saves your layout and settings locally.
Then just… start working. Add tasks, set the timer, mix a few sounds.
🧭 What’s next
I’m planning to add:
- cloud sync so you can use it on multiple devices,
- more ambient sounds,
- maybe some small customization for themes and layouts.
But I’m keeping it simple — that’s kind of the point.
💬 Final thoughts
I know it’s not the next Notion or anything like that — and that’s okay. I just wanted a small place that helps me stay focused without noise.
If that sounds useful to you too, I’d love you to try it: daily.place
And if you have feedback or find bugs, you can reach me from the site — I’d love to hear from you.
Thanks for reading ❤️
— Agustín

Very cool, bookmarking as I have the same flow of lofi, lists and have wanted a decent pomodoro because I really struggle looking away from my screen often and long enough.
