Hi, I'm considering using this app, but the last commit in master was on Nov 27, 2018, there is no deb package available and it looks like this project is not maintained anymore. Is this the case?

Hey @siriak, thanks for asking! :) I'd describe it like this: personally, I'm currently not using it – instead of tracking my habits, I'm using habit stacks, in the form of checklists which ensure that the habits get done as often as I want.

And I think adding features is currently not my priority. Additionally, it seems that I haven't been very consistent in maintaining this project. :/ (If anyone is interested in picking this up, let me know!)

siriak, it might be worth quickly trying it out and see if you like how this program works. If anything major breaks, we can likely get it fixed!

(I've also found that for some people, it's really worth it implementing their own tools, inspired by what you like in other tools – that way, you have super custom fine-grained control over what you want it to do! :)

@siriak

You also might want to check out harsh which is inspired by habitctl and which is a teensy bit more regularly maintained though written in golang (if that's important to you).
(disclaimer: I'm the author of harsh and rewrote it since habitctl was not getting much update love these days. I also contributed bug fixes and enhancements back to habitctl.). Harsh also has releases available in brew, snap and as binaries via a release pipeline if you prefer getting notifications of updates.

(and as always, much love to @blinry for coming up with this awesome app idea in the first place.).

Actually, @blinry , I'm kinda interested in these "habit stacks" you describe. Any pointers to those? (harsh works for me, but always interested in new ideas that might work even better... ).
