I’m still using [x]it! every day for tracking daily todos or various check lists (e.g. tracking payments or packing lists) – same for klog, by the way, which I use for time tracking.
I consider the [x]it! file format mostly complete, so in a way there isn’t much for me to do anymore. But I guess that’s also a good thing about such standards – that there is little to no maintenance burden compared to “actual” software.
My first reaction to this before clicking the link: why would anyone want a programmable timer?
After clicking the link and seeing the demo: man, I’ve always wanted a programmable timer.
This is awesome, can see myself using this for workouts and focus sessions. Thank you for sharing.
I read this comment, which convinced me to click the link, and had the exact same reaction.
Such a compelling idea - feels completely obvious after seeing the demo that this is what I want in a timer.
Oh that's pretty cool! I also like how you can bookmark timers to save them and then keep a list of them for various activities/purposes.
Also when I saw the HN post I knew something was familiar and I remembered an old project of yours: x[it]!
From time to time I still think about that one. Are you still engaging with x[it] or have you moved on in a sense?
