So, I made "Nikal Pado".</p> <p>It's a simple, lightweight web app that helps you plan a quick outdoor break in just a few seconds. </p> <p>** What it does:</p> <ul> <li>You type in where you are, the current weather, how much free time you have, and your interests (like walking, birding, etc.).</li> <li>It instantly creates a neat, time-split action plan for your outing.</li> <li>There's also a built-in local field journal where you can quickly save notes about what you saw or experienced outside.</li> </ul> <p>** Tech Stack:</p> <ul> <li>HTML5</li> <li>CSS (Tailwind)</li> <li>Vanilla JavaScript</li> </ul> <p>Since it runs 100% locally in the browser, there are no complicated backends or setups. You can just open it and use it.</p> <ul> <li> <strong>Live Demo:</strong> [<a href="https://sachinpal-pal.github.io/nikal-pado/" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://sachinpal-pal.github.io/nikal-pado/</a>]</li> <li> <strong>Source Code:</strong> [<a href="https://github.com/Sachinpal-pal/nikal-pado" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/Sachinpal-pal/nikal-pado</a>]</li> </ul> <p>Would love to hear your thoughts or suggestions! Happy hacking! 🌿</p> hacktoberfest touchgrass javascript webdev
