just tell me what to do

one of the biggest problem in one's life, they are stuck, they cant think, they dont know what to do. hence i am making the perfect website to fix that problem, I call it, "just tell me what to do", you dump your thoughts and constraints and you get an answer on what the best option or the next step should be!

its me again! i was on a grind, and i spent 8 hours refining the mode-specific responses, i did not change much else. next up, im planning on adding mode recommendations. this update looks at your brain dump, and suggests if there is a better mode for this input.

Ship #2

The second ship of just tell me what to do! Alright, first, here's a quick summary on what just tell me what to do is. An AI powered tool, where you choose your time on hand, then you choose how you are feeling, and then finally dump your thoughts. This gives you the next step, the next step may help to come to a more precise decision, or it maybe just to cheer you up. I went through WAY too many difficulties during this making, i tried making user accounts, but that didnt work out, and a lot more was tried... Now the HUGE update! Modes have been added to the AI, You get to choose how the AI behaves with you! There are six new modes, (the details for them are in the previous devlog) selecting the right mode can u help you for the next step much more effectively! I am really proud of my progress so far, its been insane how much work has been put into this project, and im hoping to continue this further!

okay, honestly that grind was insane. 12 hours of work, i toughed it out. anyways, now to the project. alright, so a super cool update, now theres modes to the ai, like personalities that u think will best suit you. 6 modes have been added, just decide - the defualt, vent - ai is a calm listener and gives u small gentle steps, roast me - straight forward, friend-like attitude that shows you the total truth in a blunt way, hype me up - high energy, gets you pumped up u for the next step, talk it through - thinks alongside with you, and provides clarity, and finally break it down - treats your brain dumb as a task list, and is more analytical. These are the new modes, and ive made a change mode button on the tool page. This may be my final devlog before the ship! Insane update, im excited to see how this turns out!

INSANE UPDATEEEEE! alright now ive added 2 new pages instead of 1 long scroll through page. Personally, the scroll through is really generic, and feels unfinished. One page is for “the tool,” (the ai suggester on waht to do) the other is called “my patterns” this gives u an analysis on your mood trends, productive hours etc. Im not sure if im planning to keep this feature since it feels kind of pointless. I also have added a pomodoro timer, where u get 25 minutes to complete your activity, its totally optional. In addition to that i added a share button, so u can copy it and put it into your notes, or screenshot it and send it to people! anyways, thats it for now. stay tuned for the next one!

Ship #1

As I thought about ideas, I found myself constantly thinking about the problem that everyone deals with but never considers: choosing what to do next. From procrastination to boredom or from being indecisive to having too many options to pick from, making small decisions can end up taking more time than one would expect. And that is how **just tell me what to do** came to life.

The app poses a set of questions to users and based on their answers, makes an AI-suggested recommendation to do something specific next. Those questions include the amount of free time users have, their current state, and any limits they may have. My intention was not to create a new planning tool but rather to help remove the obstacle in making the first step and continue without additional delays.

Development was definitely far from being a straight road ahead. More often than not, my time was used to solve bugs rather than implementing new features. They included different behavior between AI models, unexpected failure of my API key, and an annoying UI bug when the to-do pile overlayed with its own popup.

The aspect which I am most proud of is the very idea itself. This is the problem that I myself faced, and many other people, I presume, must have had their experiences as well. Rather than just creating another productivity app, I have wanted to make something that would be practical for someone's daily routine. Even if the app will help save just a few minutes, it would already mean a lot.

Moreover, this project gave me an opportunity to practice debugging and using the API of an AI. Each of the problems that I managed to solve added to my knowledge, and at the end of the project, I knew a lot more about frontend and using an AI in the project.

All in all, **just tell me what to do** has turned out to be one of those projects which was very easy at first but proved to be rather challenging in practice. I am glad that I made it till the end despite all the bugs and came up with something practical.

FINAL DEVLOGGGGGG, I encountered way too many bugs deleting my .env file. it was PAINFUL. Finally fixed and im gonna ship the project!!!!!!! Huge new feature added, i call it the to-do pile. Your last 5 actions show up on it, and a button thats clickable saying “did it,” as soon as you click it, the action dissappears from the to-do pile! Its been really fun working on this site!

FINISHED BUG FIXING!!!! That took way too long. Devlog #2. Alright so now i’ve fixed the major prompting issue, you can finally talk to the ai without it bringing up additional math pass rates. 😅 I figured i’d host it on OnRender since im used to it. Added environment variables instead of the .env since its not testing anymore. Rebuilt the UI slightly. Worked on it all day. Theres a share option now, which copies the text instantly (incase you want to put it on your notes/to-do-list) Hoping i face no major bugs, please check out the site and let me know if theres bugs! (you can drop a comment or wtv) Added some nice translucent/glassy ui aswell. Not sure what’s next but lets see!

First Devlog, i thought of one of the biggest problems in daily life, decision making. Im sure every one of us has faced this ATLEAST once, if not hundreds and thousands of times. On average, roughly 2.5 hours is spent on indecisiveness by humans, may it be micro decisions or important decisions. This led me to making, “just tell me what to do,” a website thats AI-Powered and helps you get your thoughts straight and come to a decision. I’ve made the first version, its not being hosted anywhere yet due to major bugs, but hopefully by my second devlog i will have started hosting it.
