<p>Congrats! I've been wanting exactly this app. I paid $5.99 for HealthFit trying to get similar information, but it doesn't (afaik) show the weekly/daily zone summaries.<p>I'd really love to see last week's information. Especially since you launched on a Monday, I'd love to have a new-user experience that shows me last week's info.<p>Other misc feedback:<p>1. Upon launching the app, I didn't see any data. Had to go into the gear menu -> approve health data sharing. I think it'd be better to push the user to this approval flow on their first session? (Edit: Aha, after watching the video: settings -> time period -> last 7 days)<p>2. Neither here nor there, but I wanted to download this so searched the app store on my phone for "heart rate zones plus" and this app was #16. I'm curious if anyone in the discussion knows -- how is this search rating determined? Is there anything the author can do to improve the ranking?</p>

<p>Congrats! I've been watching this space for a while, having built a couple multiplayer sync systems in the past in private codebases, including a "redux-pubsub" library with rebasing and server canonicity that is (IIUC?) TCR-like. There's a lot to like about this model, and I find the linked article quite clear - thank you for writing and releasing this!<p>1. You wrote "For example, schema validation and migrations just sort of fall out of the design for free." - very curious to read about what you've found to work well for migrations! I feel like there's a lot of nice stuff you can build here (tracking schema version as part of the doc, pushing migration functions into clients, and then clients can live-update) but I never got the chance to build that.<p>2. Do you have a recommendation for use-cases that involve substantial shared text editing in a TCR system? I'd usually default to Yjs and Tiptap/Prosemirror here (and am watching Automerge Prosemirror with interest). The best idea I've come up with is running two data stores in parallel: a CRDT doc that is a flat key/value identifying a set of text docs keyed by UUID, and a TCR doc representing the data, which occasionally mentions CRDT text UUIDs.</p>
