Given my recent weekend foray into Replit, I wanted to try a simple solo project to “kick the wheels” and test drive Replit a bit more.

It took about 2 hours from idea conception to deployed product with integrated DeepSeek AI - not too bad!

reflecta is a simple journal prompting app (trying to avoid overly cheesey prompts at that) that allows you to specify categories to focus on, and provides the prompt. The UI is designed to be as simple and calming as possible. As an added feature, there’s an integrated chat feature with DeepSeek’s R1 to reword, retheme, or discuss the prompt.

It’s always refreshing to quickly pump out small projects like this. Hopefully some people find it helpful!

I’ll be playing with Replit on a few other “mini-app” ideas to see if any of them get into a releaseable state.
