Thanks! Right now constellations form from typing habits, not real sky patterns — but I'm open to adding real constellations later . Focus for now is finishing a solid Windows build; Linux is on the roadmap after that.

I'm building a tiny always-on desktop companion that lives in a corner of your screen.
Every keystroke lights a star in a region that matches your keyboard layout. Over days and weeks, your habits become clusters and constellations — not from a heatmap dashboard, but from something that feels like a sky you grew yourself.
It's not a game: no coins, levels, or quests. No "press key → cute animation" loop. Think of it as a quieter alternative for people who liked Bongo Cat or typing toys but want something persistent and non-intrusive. Mouse-through, tray icon, local-only data.
Status: Windows desktop app (Tauri), early prototype. Stars, constellation lines, themes, stats, and day-by-day history are in.
I'd love your take:
- Would you keep this on your desktop? What's missing?
- Does slow growth beat instant pet feedback for you?
- History replay, export, daily ritual, more themes — what matters most?
- Too calm, or exactly the vibe you want?
