I’m currently working on a new product—a bucket list tracker designed to help people define, organize, and achieve their life goals. This isn’t just another side project; it’s a personal build I care deeply about, combining utility, inspiration, and a solid user experience.

Why This?

Most people either forget their goals or never get around to tracking them. I want to fix that. This app will allow users to log meaningful goals, break them down into manageable steps, celebrate progress, and even share or draw inspiration from others.

It's not just for goal-setting—it’s also a lightweight personal memory archive, especially useful for travel and experiential achievements.

The Stack

• Frontend: React Native, Tailwind CSS (Nativewind), Expo
• Backend: PocketBase (lightweight, fast, and great for small-medium scale apps)
• Design: Figma (UI/UX focus first before jumping into code)

Features in Progress

• Goal Inspiration Library
  Curated goal ideas across different themes—travel, skills, lifestyle—tagged and categorized to help users discover what excites them.

• Nested Goal Structures
  Support for parent-child goals. For example, a goal like "Visit all continents" can contain individual location-based sub-goals.

• Privacy & Sharing Controls
  Every list can be private, shared with close friends, or made public.

• Achievement Timeline + Badging
  A visual timeline of completed goals, with badges to mark major milestones.

• Personal Goal Page
  Each user gets a sharable, auto-generated site showcasing their public goals and completed milestones.

• Travel Goal Map View
  A geo-based UI for visualizing travel-related goals—pin locations, attach photos/videos, and write notes per destination.

• Reminders and Nudges
  Timed prompts to keep users aligned with their goals—no overwhelming notifications, just helpful check-ins.

• Community + Challenges (Planned)
  Opt-in challenges, group goals, and discovery via social feeds to foster engagement and accountability.

Current Focus

Right now, I’m refining the UX and onboarding flow. One design goal is to avoid blank states—so first-time users will be prompted to log past accomplishments. This gives them instant gratification and a sense of momentum from the start.

This project is being developed in public. I’ll be documenting progress here and on X/Twitter, covering everything from UI decisions to architecture, performance, and deployment. If you're into indie hacking, mobile dev, or product thinking, this should be worth following.
