Hey everyone! 👋 I’m excited to finally launch Workout.cool.
I was the main contributor to workout.lol a project that had real traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was sold due to video licensing and sadly abandoned. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned.
Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say.

I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better architecture long-term vision, more features and no license problems.
And also big thanks to everyone who's helping improve the project, it's a team effort !
Appreciate your kind words
hope to see you soon 💪
