Show HN: I made a running app that turns your runs to a virtual garden
I started running 5 years ago and it completely changed me. Recently, I decided to train for my first marathon and needed something more than just tracking my runs to motivate me. I noticed all the apps currently available are just trackers and route finders, but nothing has solved the problem of consistency. So I thought of combining the basic idea of the Forest app with running and created a small app for myself which would reward me with plants and trees for my runs. I am not a mobile developer but then i came across Capacitor. Since I knew Next.js and have been working with it for the past 2 years, I built the app with it. I started using it and showed it to some of my friends and they really liked it. The gamification gave me a mental boost of planting more trees and plants in my virtual garden and just seeing it flourish made me happy. Then I decided to publish it on Play Store and also built it for iOS devices as many of my friends had iPhones. It took weeks to build and release
