Wtf does this do

QuantLife Web is a local first life tracking tool built for a Chinese speaking audience. It turns daily habits into a game like progress system, letting you log daily check ins, earn experience points, track growth across different life dimensions, set wealth goals, and organize tasks into what the README calls a task camp. The project stores everything on your own computer rather than a remote server. Data lives in local JSON and SQLite files that stay on your machine and are never uploaded to GitHub, since the README notes these files are listed in gitignore. If you want AI powered text parsing or planning features, you connect your own API key from a provider such as OpenAI or Anthropic, either through a settings page in the app or by editing a local environment file. No API key ships with the project itself. The README is written as a step by step tutorial aimed at people with no coding background. It walks through downloading the project as a ZIP or cloning it with Git, installing Node.js, running npm install, and starting a local server with npm run dev before opening the app in a browser at localhost. It also covers a settings center where you can rename the app, change your growth categories, and configure the AI connection, plus a troubleshooting section covering common setup problems like port conflicts or Node.js not installing correctly. This fits people who want to gamify habits like exercise, study, or creative work while keeping their personal data private on their own device, and who are comfortable running a small local Node.js server. The project also mentions an optional donation link for anyone who wants to support ongoing maintenance, and states clearly that donating does not unlock any extra features.
