A Burnout Tracker Because Spreadsheets Were Killing Me

I Built a Burnout Tracker Because Spreadsheets Were Killing Me

As a developer with ADHD, I kept burning out in predictable cycles. I tried tracking everything in spreadsheets, but the friction was too high. So I built LumaCare - a free, no-login stress pattern tracker.

The Problem with Manual Tracking

  • Spreadsheets require consistency (my ADHD nemesis)
  • No visualization of patterns
  • Easy to forget/avoid when overwhelmed

The Simple Solution

I built a tool that:

  • Takes 10 seconds to log energy/stress
  • Shows patterns on a timeline
  • Predicts crash cycles
  • Zero login required

Why This Matters

For neurodivergent brains, seeing data visually is everything. When I could SEE my 3-week burnout cycle on a timeline, I could finally interrupt it.

For My Fellow Developers

This is built with [your tech stack - Next.js/React/etc.]. It's open for feedback and suggestions. How would you improve a tool like this?

Try It

Completely free. No email required. Give it a try if you're tired of burning out on repeat.
