Terminal habit tracker widget
A terminal habit tracker widget shows today's habits with a ring that fills as you complete them. Green or amber monospace text on black, like a command line. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.

What a terminal habit tracker widget shows
A habit tracker widget keeps a daily routine in view: water, reading, a walk. A ring shows how much of today is done and a short list lets you tick each habit from the home screen.
Habits are stored on the phone in WidgetCraft's Tasks, notes & habits section, a free source with no account or permission. Each habit can have a daily goal, such as 8 glasses, and the days it repeats; the app keeps the streak for you.
How the terminal style shapes it
Terminal widgets look like a command prompt: a black background, green monospace text, a prompt symbol and plain text output instead of graphics.
- Lists: Prefix rows with [ ] and [x] like a text file checklist.
- Bars and rings: Draw bars from block characters, like [#####-----].

How to make a terminal habit tracker widget in WidgetCraft
- Open Tasks, notes & habits and add your habits. Give each a daily goal (for example 8 glasses) and the days it repeats.
- Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #050805 and the corner radius to 6. Add a 1-point outline.
- Tap Add and choose Habit progress ring. Set the diameter to 100, the stroke to 9 and the progress color to #39FF6A.
- Add a Text layer inside the ring for the count of completed habits at size 24 in #39FF6A.
- Add Today's habits as a list on the right, limited to three rows, with text at size 15 in #39FF6A. A tap on a row marks progress.
- Add the terminal ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a 20-point title bar across the top in the darker green-black, with three small dots at its left like a terminal window.
- Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for terminal habit tracker widgets
- Use one monospace font for everything.
- Keep text green on black with a dimmer green for labels.
- Track three habits or fewer on one widget; more rows get too small to tap.
- Give counted habits a unit, such as glasses or pages, so the numbers make sense.
- A habit only counts on the days it is scheduled, so check the days if one never appears.
- Do not use rounded corners above 8.
- Do not mix in icons or images.
