Hello!
Notice
I am not into coding or programming, but I usually help giving ideas to software and app developers and it seems I am helpful somehow.
I registered on GitHub just now, but I don't understand very well how does GitHub work for active users. I just use GitHub to download releases and then, I send suggestions via web or email.
Gratitude
I am very grateful to Rob Caelers for creating this wonderful app.
I am disabled because of dissociative amnesia, which would be like being an "inverse dreamwalker".
Sometimes I focus so much in something (ex. a project) that I lose the sense of my own self, because hours and days can pass without me noticing, and that's very dangerous for me when I "wake up" and realize what I am, where I am, what I've done, etc.
It's scary to "discover" yourself and "find out" you haven't eaten nor slept, nor done homework or appointments, etc.
That's why WorkRave is so useful, because it "wakes me up" but also forces me to stop using the computer, do stretches, drink water, etc. I am having more control over losing myself while being at the computer.
I am so damn grateful, thank you for this app.
Suggestions
I wanted to contribute some suggestions for WorkRave, if you don't mind.
If I am not posting in the right place, sorry in advance.
I will post the suggestions on the forum for the moment by the 'Ideas' tag, while I learn more about participating on GitHub.
Suggestion 1: Categories of Exercises
Exercises could have their own categories.
You could have, for example...
Suggestion 2 (long term): Mobile App or Web Application
I know people who have to use the phone or tablet as their work tool for long periods of time.
And some are getting SRI's for that, especially on the neck and the thumbs, if they look down to the phone or hold a heavy and big or tablet for a long time.
This suggestion would be long term, but it would be creating an app or web port of the Desktop version.
Contributing
I know I ask a lot. I would like to be helping in the process, if I'm needed.
I don't know how to code, but I know some graphic arts stuff. I read Rob was interested in learning Blender. I know a bit of 3D, but not organic modeling, just basic modeling, texturing and animation. But I know some basic resources and rigs that could be adjusted and posted for the images.
If I can help somehow, please, tell me.
Thank you for your work.
Have a nice day!
