# ProudNotProud

> ProudNotProud is a private check-in instrument where people log how proud they are of their work on a 1–5 scale — personal, anonymous to employers, and yours to keep.

ProudNotProud is a web app where people check in on how proud they feel about their work. It surfaces real-time signals across teams and the global community, without attaching names to the data. It is not a wellness or mood tracker — it is a pride tracker: a single question about the work, not about how you feel in general.

## What it does

- **Daily check-ins**: Users rate how proud they feel on a 1–5 scale (Very Not Proud → Peak Proud) and optionally add a note, tag the type of work, and link it to a workplace or client.
- **Personal history**: A full visual history of check-ins — year dot-grid, 30-day bar chart, week view — shows pride trends over time.
- **Proud Index**: A personal score (0–100) that tracks the percentage of proud check-ins, weighted by session duration.
- **Community pulse**: Anonymous aggregated pride data across the global ProudNotProud community, updated in real time.
- **Teams workspaces**: Companies can create private workspaces. Managers see anonymized team pride aggregates — never individual entries, never names.
- **Privacy-first**: No names are ever attached to check-ins. Teams data is anonymized before any manager can see it. Community identity is never propagated to Teams views.
