Orbit Desk - Stardance

Ship #1

Orbit Desk is a custom new-tab mission-control dashboard built with plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I am proud of the live clock, 25-minute focus timer, persistent localStorage priorities, responsive layout, and accessible interaction states. The main challenge was keeping the interface useful and calm while making every feature work without external dependencies. Test it by starting and resetting the timer, adding and completing priorities, reloading to confirm they persist, and trying the search and launch links.

Orbit Desk is live!

I turned a blank browser tab into a calm personal mission-control dashboard.

Live local clock and time-aware greeting
25-minute focus timer with pause and reset
Priorities saved with localStorage
Responsive layout, keyboard focus, and reduced-motion support

Built with plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, then browser-tested end to end. The public repo and GitHub Pages deployment are ready for review.
