Table Structures and Columns

Daily Habits Tracker (Sheet: Daily Habits Tracker)

This table logs daily habit completion. It includes: - Date (Column A): Date type (formatted as "dd/mm/yyyy"). - Habit Name (Column B): Text input with dropdown list of pre-defined habits. - Completion Status (Column C): Checkbox using data validation. - Streak Count (Column D): Calculated number of consecutive days completed. - Mood Rating (Column E): Numeric scale from 1–5, where 1 = Low energy, 5 = High energy. - Notes (Column F): Optional free-text field for reflections.

Weekly Shopping List (Sheet: Weekly Shopping List)

This is the core of the shopping functionality with habit integration: - Item Name (Column A): Text input for groceries. - Category (Column B): Dropdown list: Dairy, Fruits, Vegetables, Staples, Snacks, Beverages. - Quantity (Column C): Number input; allows decimal values for items like milk or spices. - Purchased Status (Column D): Yes/No checkbox; toggles when checked. - Habit Linkage (Column E): Dropdown list matching to habits such as "Drink 8 Glasses Water" or "Cook at Home". - Notes / Reminder (Column F): Text field for additional info, e.g., “Buy organic”.

Data Types and Formulas

All data types are optimized for dynamic tracking: - Streak Calculation (D3 in Daily Habits Tracker): `=IF(C3=TRUE, IF(ROW()-1>=2, IF(C2=TRUE, D2+1, 1), 1), 0)` This formula checks if today’s habit was completed. If yes and yesterday was also completed, it increments the streak; otherwise resets to one. - Shopping List Completion Rate (in Dashboard): `=COUNTIF(Weekly_Shopping_List!D:D,"TRUE") / COUNTA(Weekly_Shopping_List!A:A) * 100` Calculates percentage of shopping list items checked off. - Habit Success Rate (Dashboard): `=SUMIFS(Daily_Habits_Tracker!C:C, Daily_Habits_Tracker!C:C, TRUE) / COUNTA(Daily_Habits_Tracker!B:B)` Measures overall habit completion rate.

Conditional Formatting

Visual cues enhance habit awareness and shopping efficiency: - Habit Streaks: If streak ≥ 7 days, highlight cell in green (using conditional formatting rules on Column D). - Purchased Items: When "Purchased Status" is checked, the row turns light green. - Overdue Habits: If a habit is marked incomplete for two or more consecutive days, the entire row turns red. - Low Mood Days: If mood rating ≤ 2, the cell in Column E gets a yellow background.
