Ask HN: What's a simple app you'd build if you had a weekend?

I know apps like this already exist, but I’d make one that sends you a single positive affirmation once a day as a notification.

Nothing else.

No streaks, no subscriptions, no journaling, no extra features.

That’s all it does.

    Website implementing a couple of the classic decision support linear programming models. Not 20, and not 1. Maybe 2 or 3, with low enough barrier to enter somebody can do a "what if" over 3 or 4 unrelated criteria which need to arrive at a unified choice.

    Mine was an app that runs in the background and auto copies on select - ended up building it over a couple of weekends - pluks.app if you want to try it.

    Like a variation of some game....pong with powers and such. Or 3d tic tac toe, or or 3d connect 4. Something that start simple and by the time I know it, I am deep into it

      Something like we chat, a super app - one app to rule em all.

        Why do people want that? The super app is called the OS and apps are supposed to be modules with single responsibilities, right? What’s the advantage (for the user) of one super app compared to multiple apps?
