About this project
Diary studies are a underused, high-insight method. This project teaches: study design, daily check-ins, retention strategies, and the synthesis challenge of dense, asynchronous data. Pick a niche behavior (morning routine, learning new tools, working from home) and run a real 2-week study.
Why build this in 2026?
Diary studies are a high-craft UXR signal — most candidates have never run one.
