Hello, planks!

Version 2.0

Plank like a champion—because you are one!

At its core, it's more than just a stopwatch. It’s your personal plank warrior timer, featuring a big, bold start/stop button at the center of the action, counting the seconds as you power through the burn. And forget about the screen dimming after 30 seconds – this stopwatch is here for the long haul, just like you!

Every plank you crush is logged with motivational stats and progress tracking. For each achievement, you’ll earn a shiny crown, and your planks? They’re showcased as bars on your journey to greatness. The longer you hold, the better your bar – longer than average? That bar gets darker, stronger. Shorter planks? Well, let's just say they won't be stealing the spotlight.

Your mission? Stack those longer, darker lines at the top and rise above the rest!

And that’s just the beginning…

And remember: The only bad plank is the one that didn't happen.

What’s new?

Complete rewrite. Out with Flutter and Dart, if you must know, and in with Maui and .NET.

This is Hello, Planks!

"Hello, planks!" is a planking challenge and -tracker.

This started as a New Year's resolution: to build up a bit of strength and see how far I could take this.

Then, it became an engineering challenge: to build a new iOS app, to try out several frameworks, etc. and here it is: "Hello, planks!"

At its core, this is a stopwatch. A stopwatch that does not switch the screen off after 30 seconds (the first version did that! -- not helpful). It also keeps track of the times you have recorded, with some motivational statistics.

The app contains a big, round start/stop button in the middle and a list of previous planks. The longer the bars, the better. Longer than average planks are highlighted darker, so you want the longer and darker buttons at the top.

That's it. So far.
