# NostrCount
A decentralized life milestone tracker built on the Nostr protocol. Track your progress, celebrate achievements, and share your journey with the world.
## Features
- **Censorship Resistant**: Built on Nostr for decentralized data storage
- **Lightning Zaps**: Support creators with Bitcoin Lightning Network payments
- **Private or Public**: Choose to keep counters private or share them publicly
- **Two Counter Types**: Track "days since" achievements or "days until" events
- **Real-time Updates**: Automatic syncing across devices through Nostr relays
- **Modern UI**: Beautiful, responsive design with Tailwind CSS
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Node.js (v18 or higher)
- npm or yarn
- A Nostr extension (like Alby, nos2x, or Flamingo) for signing events
## Architecture
### Tech Stack
- **Frontend**: React 18 + TypeScript + Vite
- **Styling**: Tailwind CSS
- **Nostr Integration**: NDK (Nostr Development Kit)
- **Date Handling**: Day.js
- **Routing**: React Router
- **Icons**: Lucide React
### Nostr Implementation
- **Event Kind**: 30078 (Parameterized Replaceable Events)
