Apparently “just 10 more minutes” is not a great long-term productivity strategy 😅

I kept working for hours without noticing, so I built EnoughWork — a minimal desktop app that reminds you when your daily work limit is over.

No productivity dashboards.
No streaks.
No guilt systems.
No “optimize your life” nonsense.

Just a gentle fullscreen reminder across all monitors telling you maybe it’s time to stop working and go outside for once.

Built with Tauri + Rust.
Open source and local-first.

Launched today on Product Hunt

I built this because I tend to keep working for hours without noticing, and it was affecting my health and mental state. I also wanted to learn how desktop apps work with Tauri and Rust.

The idea is intentionally simple:

Set a daily work limit (default is 8 hours — my own daily limit), and when the limit is reached, a fullscreen overlay gently reminds you to stop working.

Not a blocker. Not a productivity system. Just awareness.

Features:

• Tracks active screen time
• Fullscreen overlay across multiple monitors
• Lightweight & local-first
• No cloud / no tracking
• Windows, macOS, Linux (only tested on Windows and macOS by myself so far)

Built with:

• Tauri
• Vanilla HTML/CSS/JS

Would love to hear feedback — good or bad, send it all my way.
