About
Nerva is a native desktop focus workspace built for deep work. Parallel timers that survive sleep and reboot, sticky markdown notes that float above any window, a year-long habit heatmap, and tasks with priority and due times. Offline-first. Telemetry off by default (anonymous usage stats are opt-in). No account. What Nerva does: - Parallel focus timers — wall-clock math, survives suspend and reboot - Sticky markdown notes — pop up, float above any window, 250 ms autosave - Habit heatmap — 4-state daily toggle, streaks, full-year contribution grid - Tasks with pop-out — priority + due time, dockable or floating widget - Command palette — Ctrl+Space to jump anywhere - Crash-safe local store — event-sourced SQLite append-only log Native Rust core (Tauri), ~80 MB RAM idle. Not Electron. Open source, Apache-2.0.
