Show HN: Built a macOS menubar app to track salary in real-time, now on the web

Had this idea with a friend while chatting about staying motivated during long workdays. We built a macOS app that tracks your salary in real time in your menubar. It’s been a fun way to stay motivated by seeing those dollars tick up throughout the day.

Recently, we decided to make a web version so it’s accessible on other platforms or for people who prefer a browser-based option.

The macOS app has a feature where you can set a milestone (e.g., $50 earned) and get a fun animation when you hit it. We didn’t bring that to the web version, just stuck to the title bar updating for simplicity.

If this makes you a tiny bit smile, we’d love to hear about it!
