Introducing BibleHeat — A Heatmap for Your Bible Reading

If you've ever tried to read the Bible consistently, you know the challenge isn't starting — it's keeping track of where you've been over months and years. BibleHeat is a tool we built to solve exactly that.

The core idea is simple: display your Bible reading history as a heatmap, similar to GitHub's contribution graph. Every book and chapter of the Bible is laid out in a periodic-table-style grid, and the color intensity shows how often you've read each portion — from unread to deeply studied. At a glance, you can see which parts of the Bible you know well and which ones you've never touched.

Logging a reading is designed to feel natural. You type a passage the way you'd say it — "Luke 2:4-3:15" or "John 2-3" or "Acts 5:10-13" — and BibleHeat parses it automatically. Pick a date (it defaults to today) and you're done. No dropdowns, no page flipping, no friction.

BibleHeat supports multiple reading tracks, so you can separate your personal reading from family devotions or a yearly reading plan. The heatmap can be filtered by track, time period, or scope — the whole Bible, just the Old or New Testament, a single book, or even individual chapters.

The app supports both English and Romanian and is built to be a long-term companion. The idea isn't to gamify Bible reading or pressure you into streaks. It's to give you an honest, visual record of your journey over time — so you can see where you've been and decide where to go next.
