TL;DR: a test runner focused on making devs w/ ADHD happy.

Hello HN! My name is [redacted], a dev with ADHD.

I believe there's different design constraints on tooling for devs with ADHD compared to their "normal"counterparts. That's what I'm here to solve.

I gathered experiences of other ADHD devs, to summarize: (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33280461)

  - Memory: People w/ ADHD have horrendous short term memory (hard to keep grasp of the current *thing/task*)

  - Distraction: Are easily distracted, tend to fall off the focus wagon easily.

  - Boring Maintenance: They need and use lists, but are bad at maintaining them.

Some background, I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 5, moved in and out of schools through elementry/middleschool, ultimatly dropped out of highschool, I'm familiar with ADHD ;)

If you have any suggestions/feature-requests., or maybe have some ADHD experiences to share. this is for sure the place.


Love it! Awesome work! I love seeing software made by people with ADHD that have an understanding of their ADHD for others with ADHD.


Well, I wouldn't say i'm being selfless here, I benefit as a user lol :)
