It started with a simple frustration. Every time I needed to take a quick note, check my tasks, or check my calendar, I had to stop what I was doing, Alt+Tab, find the right app, do the thing, then try to remember where I was and come back That context switch sounds small but it adds up to a lot of lost focus and eye strain.

So I built FlowFloat, just launched on Microsoft Store.

It's a free dark floating productivity suite for Windows — a layer that lives above everything on your screen. Notes, tasks, a Pomodoro timer, calendar, and a local AI assistant, all floating above whatever you're working on. You never have to leave your workflow to access them. This has reduced a lot friction for me.

Here's how it works:

- Each tool has its own dedicated hotkey. Press it once to summon it, press it again to hide it.

- Or launch everything through a floating launcher that sits above your screen.

- All apps are resizable, transparent, and movable — put them exactly where you want.

- The AI assistant runs locally via Ollama — your data never leaves your machine.

I hope you find it helpful, thanks!
