🌿 The Baromètre Énergétique – An Embodied App

✨ Inspiration

The Baromètre Énergétique was born from a visceral need to listen more deeply to the body, to sort through what’s truly felt and what’s just mental overload, and to create a tool that’s simple, intimate, and powerful for finding alignment again.
As a Projector 2/4 with Splenic Authority, I felt the call to design this project: an embodied energetic companion, guided by Human Design, for all women who wish to reconnect with themselves.

The inspiration came during a moment of personal misalignment:
I didn’t need advice — I needed a mirror.
I longed for a living tool, not a rigid app.
And above all, I wanted to honor the wisdom of the energy centers, the moon, the cycles, and silence.

My partner is an expert in Human Design and has been practicing it for over five years.
She has always been a living compass for me — a sensitive gauge and energy regulator during times of doubt or fatigue.
So I began to think of all the women who don’t have someone like that by their side...
Those who navigate their lives alone, with no clear way to realign.
And that’s when the second purpose of the Baromètre revealed itself:
First, to feel better myself.
Then, to support them.
To support us.


🔍 What the App Does

The Baromètre Énergétique allows each user to:

  • Scan her inner state across 9 categories:
    General, Emotional, Physical, Mental, Digestive, Sensory, Energetic, Feminine Cycle, HD Specific
  • Select her current feelings from a detailed and intuitive list
  • Receive:
    • a global energy score
    • the most affected Human Design centers
    • personalized guidance based on her Human Design type
    • a mantra and a realignment ritual
  • Explore a detailed analysis for each selected feeling, including:
    • a sensory description
    • the probable origin
    • a mirror phrase
    • the affected HD center(s)

The app also includes:

  • A dashboard to track energy evolution across scans
  • A reminder section for recurrent feelings
  • A mobile-first, intuitive, and responsive interface
  • A fully tailored experience based on the user’s Human Design type
    (not profile – the profile is something different)

🛠️ How I Built It

  • Frontend: React.js + Vite + Tailwind CSS + Framer Motion (for animations)
  • Backend: Supabase (auth, database, edge functions)
  • Database: complex schema linking feelings, HD centers, HD types, scoring, and dynamic guidance
  • Multilingual system: translations stored directly in Supabase with dedicated tables
  • PWA support: installable on mobile with offline capabilities
  • Dynamic content: all texts, mantras, and mirror phrases are editable via Supabase

⚠️ Challenges Faced

  • Bolt bugs, especially when duplicating components or using conditional display logic
  • Sleepless nights fixing CORS issues or debugging misunderstood edge functions
  • Learning curve with Supabase, especially with RLS policies and relational joins
  • Limited resources: I paid for tokens out of pocket, with no team, no budget — only faith
  • Massive amount of content to structure:
    225 feelings × 5 fields × multiple HD types and categories
  • Contest deadline: building all of this in 4 weeks — solo — was a miracle

✅ What I’m Proud Of

  • Turning a blurry idea into a functional, beautiful and meaningful app
  • Staying true to the Human Design logic without becoming too esoteric
  • Creating a tool that feels good, not just another technical platform
  • Holding on, despite doubts, errors, bugs, and lack of sleep
  • Trusting my inner authority, every single day — even when everything crashed

🎯 What I Learned

  • Supabase is powerful — but only if you truly understand how it works
  • Edge Functions are great on paper, but demand rigor and clarity
  • React can be light and poetic — with clean architecture
  • A solid database design prevents a thousand bugs
  • Design is not a detail — especially for an energy-based app. The interface is the message.
  • Nothing replaces clarity of intention

🌱 What’s Next

  • Launch the full version with:
    • reminders
    • notifications
    • PDF exports
    • an AI assistant called La Guide HED
  • Connect the app to:
    • the Transformation Journal
    • the ALIGN module
    • daily readings (numerology + HD)
  • Allow women to track their long-term energetic evolution
  • Add:
    • lunar calendar integration
    • rituals
    • Telegram & WhatsApp connections
