Full disclosure: I run a competing app [1].

I think this is great, especially because it's OSS.

But if you want to really outshine Strong and Heavy, I'd look into "auto progression" of exercises. Too often, people just... log the same thing for years. Some RIR / RPE / linear progression would keep people motivated.

Hey this is interesting! Thanks for sharing.

I was thinking of adding in workout templates and maybe even figure out progressive overload or routines like 5-3-1.

Someone earlier made a reference to another app that lets you write/share scripts that can be used to design custom programs - which is very interesting. Being web based, custom programs could be written in JavaScript and `eval`'d in a sandbox - allowing for a similar experience.
