Making the world a little more fun

About

I’m a senior cloud native application engineer at ByteDance, now also exploring indie app development. I love building small, thoughtful products that make everyday life a little more fun. For me, that’s the real value of software.

I built a tiny Mac cat for payday progress - would this help or distract you?

Hi Product Hunt - I'm launching Payday Kitty tomorrow and would genuinely love early feedback before it goes live.

It is a tiny macOS desktop companion that turns a workday into visible payday progress: a floating cat, a progress bar, and a small coin animation that changes as your day moves forward.

Payday Kitty - A tiny Mac cat that turns work into payday progress

Payday Kitty is a tiny macOS desktop pet that makes your workday feel more alive. Set your work hours and theoretical daily pay, then watch your earnings grow in real time with a floating cat, progress bar, and coin animation. Hide salary numbers with privacy mode, pause when needed, or send the cat to the menu bar and bring it back with Cmd+Shift+P. Local-first: no account, no analytics, no salary data uploaded.
