Student builds dAIly, a local-first AI planning agent powered by Gemma

For Hacktoberfest's weekend challenge, developer Yajush Srivastava built dAIly, a local desktop planning agent for his college friend.
- Problem: the friend's class schedule changes daily, deadlines shift, and static timetables never survive contact with reality.
- What it does: breaks long-term goals (ML study, DSA practice, projects) into daily plans based on timetable, free time, deadlines, and energy levels; ad-hoc assignments can be added without becoming permanent goals; proposed plan changes require user confirmation, and completed focus sessions are logged.
- Stack: Gemma running locally, Electron, React, and SQLite — fully local-first.
A neat example of building a small agent for one specific person's real problem.
