Support for Goals #121

Open rolandgeider opened 9 years ago

rolandgeider commented 9 years ago

The application should be able to track user's goals and, if possible, show some kind of progress, deadlines or similar.

Goals could be either "automatic" or "free". Automatic ones ("Get to weight X by date Y", "go X times per months to the gym") can be monitored by the application. Free ones can only be closed by the user because the application can't know when they were completed (free text entered by the user).

This should probably be a new app.

We should mention how to properly set goals, e.g. SMART

A good goal would be things like "I want to bench press my own body weight in the next 6 months" while a bad goal would be "I want to get stronger". As for how much of this can be checked by the software without implementing half an AI, we will need to see.
