🧠 BrainIt

Fight brain rot, one equation at a time. 💪

A terminal-based mental math game for developers who'd rather do quick math than scroll TikTok during their coffee break. Train your brain while your code compiles!

⚡ Quick Start

npm install -g brainit
brainit

That's it! No config, no setup, just pure mental math adrenaline.

🎮 What You Get

• 60-second sprint - Beat the clock solving real mental math
• Live countdown - Watch time tick without losing your input
• 4 operations - Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division
• Smart questions - No baby math like 2+2 or 5×1
• High scores - Flex on your past self
• 2 game modes - Standard (60s) or Long (120s) for masochists

🕹️ Commands

brainit              # 60-second game
brainit long         # 120-second game (hardcore mode)
brainit highscore    # Check your best score

📖 The Rules

Time:

• Standard: 60 seconds ⏱️
• Long mode: 120 seconds 🔥

Questions you'll see:

• Addition: 47 + 68 (range: 12-99)
• Subtraction: 85 - 39 (range: 25-120)
• Multiplication: 23 × 8 or 14 × 11 (no easy ones like 4×4)
• Division: 72 / 9 (clean answers, divisor max 9)

Smart design:

• ❌ No trivial questions (bye bye 2+2)
• ⏭️ First 3 questions skip division (warm up first!)
• 💾 Auto-saves your high score to ~/.brainit-highscore.json

🛠️ Development

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/brainit.git
cd brainit
npm install
npm run dev    # Run with hot reload
npm run build  # Compile TypeScript

🤔 Why This Exists

Your brain is getting soft from all that Stack Overflow copy-pasting. BrainIt brings back the mental math you used before calculators took over your life.

Use it for:

• 🧠 Quick brain warmup before deep work
• ☕ Coffee break that's actually productive
• 🏃 Mental sprints between compile times
• 💪 Keeping your calculation skills sharp

The hidden benefit: You'll stop reaching for your calculator to figure out how many minutes are in 2.5 hours.
