About Memento Morning

What the project is

Memento Morning is a small open source web app for beginning the day with one Stoic quote and one reflection prompt. It is intentionally quiet: no account, no feed, no archive to scroll, and no streak to manage.

Why it exists

Many habit tools make the morning feel like another dashboard. Memento Morning exists for the opposite reason. It gives you a single thought worth sitting with before the day starts moving quickly.

Who it is for

The site is for people who want a brief daily practice grounded in Stoic philosophy, whether they are new to Stoicism or already familiar with writers such as Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus.

How it helps

Each entry pairs a quote with a virtue label and a plain reflection prompt. The goal is not to collect inspiration, but to make a little room for attention, judgment, courage, restraint, and care.
