Faithful Today is a privacy-focused mobile web app for spiritual wellness. It runs entirely in the browser using a "Local-First" data model.

Most wellness apps lock your personal thoughts behind a cloud login; we wanted something where the user owned the data.
The Tech (Local-First):
Database: It uses localStorage for everything. Your journal entries and settings are encrypted and stored purely on the client side. We literally cannot see your data.
Mood Engine: We built a custom logic engine that maps inputs to specific datasets. We recently added lazy-loaded audio to keep the initial bundle small while ensuring accessibility.
No Frameworks: The UI is vanilla JavaScript.
Feedback Request: Since this is a bootstrapped project, we're looking for feedback on:
The "App-like" feel—does the navigation feel smooth without a framework?
Audio performance, we're lazy-loading the spoken audio. How does the playback feel on slower networks?
