Cup of Sugar
Relationshipsweight 1tracker · keeps what you put in
Good fences make good neighbours, but so does remembering who watered whose tomatoes in August. Cup of Sugar keeps the gentle ledger of neighbourhood favours — what was done, by or for whom, and whether the current state of affairs is They owe me, I owe them, or the blessed We're square. Not because anyone is counting, of course. But just in case.
This is not a screenshot. It's the real tool, running right here — go on, put something in it.

Questions people ask
Isn't it a bit petty to track favours with neighbours?
Tracking to collect would be. This is tracking to reciprocate — remembering that the people at number twelve took your bins out twice so you can be the one who offers next time. It is bookkeeping in the service of generosity.
Could my neighbours ever see this list?
Only over your shoulder. The tracker is a single HTML file that runs offline in your browser — no account, no cloud, nothing leaves the page. The ledger is yours alone, forever.
What does each entry record?
The favour, the neighbour, the direction — they owe me, I owe them, or we're square — the date, and any notes. Enough to keep the sugar flowing evenly up and down the street.
