Usage
This page explains what the system does and how you use it at a high level. It intentionally avoids code examples.
Night theme
The documentation site uses a dark UI by default for comfortable reading.
Two tools
Daily is for running your daily flow. Daily Editor is for creating and maintaining the daily content.
Daily
Daily is the runtime part of the system: it loads the current day’s content and presents it in a consistent way each day. Think of it as the "player".
What it does
- Finds the active day (based on date/time or your configured selection).
- Loads that day’s entry (text, tasks, prompts, or whatever the day contains).
- Shows the entry in a predictable structure so you build a routine.
When you use it
- At the start of your session to see what today is.
- Whenever you want to review today’s checklist / notes / prompts.
- As a daily anchor: the content changes by day, the UI flow stays familiar.
Daily Editor
Daily Editor is the authoring part of the system: it’s how you create, edit, and organize the daily content. Think of it as the "studio".
What it does
- Creates new daily entries (new day templates, new prompts, new sections).
- Edits existing entries without manually touching internal files.
- Helps keep the format consistent so Daily can load it reliably.
When you use it
- Before a new day/week to prepare content.
- When you want to adjust tasks, text, or ordering.
- When migrating content or standardizing older entries.
How they work together
1
You create content in Daily Editor
Daily Editor maintains the daily entries in a format that the runtime understands.
2
Daily loads today’s entry
On each day, Daily selects the active entry and reads it as the source of truth for what to show.
3
You follow the routine
The content changes, but the experience stays consistent—helping you build a daily loop.
