Stint

Device-centered design system.

Stint is a project tracker for fixed two-week cycles, set on a cool near-black with a muted violet accent that is deliberately quieter than orivion's glow. The hero is the device-on-mesh preset: a floating app-window mockup over a layered violet-and-indigo mesh, flat, no spotlight. Inter and JetBrains Mono keep the voice clinical and deadpan; the work is the star, not the chrome. It sells honesty as a feature: no infinite backlog, no roadmap fiction, the retro writes itself.

A tracker that doesn't pretend. Fixed-cycle work units (two-week stints), clinical voice, deadpan directness. The hero is the product window, not a glowing object; the work is the star.

Anatomy

Fictional project tracker for teams that work in fixed cycles. Dark cool canvas, muted violet mesh background, floating app-window mockup as the hero subject. Proves the device-on-mesh preset: mesh medium + device subject + flat relation.

Hero composition

an app-window mockup floating off-center to the right over a muted violet mesh. The device has a subtle drop shadow but no glow or halo; it is a physical object sitting on a background, not a source of light.

Voice

Tone. blunt, anti-roadmap-theater; honest math about what actually shipped

Cadence. names the status quo, then states the fixed rule. fourteen days repeated like a drumbeat. flat refusals (You don't add work mid-stint. The window doesn't stretch.). ends on a direct question.

• Ship what you said you'd ship.
• Stint works in fourteen-day units. No infinite backlog. No roadmap fiction. A fixed window, and what actually got done.
• The clock is the plan.
• We stopped lying to ourselves about what we'd get done.
