Desktop TerrariumA living record of focused work
Your project is becoming something.
Desktop Terrarium notices when you work in Xcode, Cursor, Codex, Claude and other development tools—then turns that attention into a garden that grows with the project.
Growing from Xcode
Quiet motivation
Work leaves a beautiful trace.
Each focused minute contributes to a world associated with the project you actually have open.
Open your project
Desktop Terrarium recognizes the active workspace from the development tools you already use.
Stay with the work
Focus accumulates quietly. Plants, light, movement and momentum become richer over time.
See what you built
Project levels and momentum show the consistency behind the result—not just the final commit.
Visible even when tucked away
Progress stays in sight.
Minimize or close the main window and a compact desktop strip can keep your current project cycle—and optionally the year—in view.
- Follows the active project automatically
- Optional calendar-year progress
- Click either bar to reopen the garden
- Respects Reduce Motion
