DailyZen

Your daily moment of wisdom, powered by Llama AI via Groq.

Setup

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v18+)
• A free Groq API key

Install & run

npm install
npm start

Build for Windows

npm run build

The .exe installer will appear in the dist/ folder.

First run

On first launch, DailyZen will walk you through a short setup:

1. Welcome — learn what the app does
2. Your name — so wisdom feels personal
3. Groq API key — paste your key (stored locally, never shared)
4. Theme — pick your visual atmosphere

Your key is stored securely in your OS app-data folder using electron-store. It never leaves your machine except to call Groq's API directly.

Features

• Fresh AI-generated wisdom each day
• Request a new one anytime
• History of all past wisdom (up to 90 days)
• Day streak tracking
• 6 themes: Cosmos, Dawn, Forest, Parchment, Midnight, Rose
• One-click copy
• Lives in your system tray

Getting a Groq API key

1. Go to console.groq.com
2. Sign up for free
3. Navigate to API Keys → Create API Key
4. Copy and paste it into DailyZen on first launch

The free tier is more than enough for daily use.
