Repo of the day

cdyforever/how-to-live-better led the day with +935 stars to 3845 total stars and +0 subscribers to 0 total subscribers. How-to-Live-Better is a single-file HTML reader that presents an open-source self-improvement guide in a searchable, mobile-friendly format.

The project solves the problem of accessing a comprehensive life-advice guide without installing software or relying on external resources. The original book, maintained elsewhere, contains 528 recommendations across 32 sections, each ranked by cost-benefit ratio and supported by journal papers or official sources. This tool renders that content into a self-contained webpage with no external dependencies, CDN calls, or font links, making it readable offline on any device.

The tool suits anyone wanting to browse practical life advice on a phone or unfamiliar computer without setup friction. The single HTML file requires no build step—users can open it directly by double-clicking. Key features include full-text keyword search with result highlighting, filtering by evidence level (A/B/C grades), a sidebar table of contents with color-coded cost-benefit indicators, dark mode support, and print-friendly formatting. The interface adapts to mobile screens with a collapsible header and dedicated search row. The project does not modify the original book's content; it only changes how that content is presented and accessed.

The project rebuilds daily by pulling upstream changes and regenerating the page, committing only when content differs. Statistics for item counts and evidence grades are kept in sync with the upstream source through automated comparison. Manual rebuilds can be triggered through the repository's Actions interface.
