Indie Maker gamifying self-improvement.

About

Hey, I'm Baran—a solo maker who believes self-improvement shouldn't be a grind; it should be an adventure. That philosophy comes from my own experience with post-master's burnout. I got serious about rebuilding my habits but grew frustrated when my progress felt invisible, like grinding in a video game with no XP bar. I wanted to see my hard work pay off in a tangible, motivating way. That's why I built Habits Warrior: a gamified habit-tracker that turns your goals into stats you can actually see grow. It’s the tool I wished I had. When I'm not coding, you can find me diving into an RPG or exploring new productivity systems. I'm always happy to connect with other makers and builders!
