A minimalist space to visualize time and memory.
Dot Journal reimagines the standard calendar as an interactive canvas. Instead of boxes and lists, your year is mapped as a living grid of dots, giving you a unique perspective on the passage of time and the shape of your life.
-
Your Year at a Glance Every day of the year is represented by a single dot.
- The Past: Solid and permanent.
- The Present: Glowing and active.
- The Future: Faded and waiting.
-
Interactive & Tactile The grid feels alive. Move your mouse across the days, and the dots gently scatter and ripple around your cursor, adding a moment of playfulness to your daily reflection.
-
Visual Progress A sleek circular gauge in the header shows you exactly where you stand in the current year, grounding you in the present moment.
-
Private by Design Your thoughts are yours alone. Currently, all entries are saved directly to your device's local memory. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking.
-
Distraction-Free Writing Click any active dot to open a clean, focused writing space. Capture a thought, a memory, or a feeling, and watch that day's dot glow to mark it as "kept."
