The 10,000 Hour Rule
They say it takes 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to master a skill. That's a long, lonely road.
MainQuest makes the road less lonely by visualizing every hour. Seeing the bar go up by 0.1% is infinitely better than seeing nothing at all.

Six Ranks, One Ladder
Every skill climbs the same ladder, purely on logged hours — no quiz, no starting tier. Full Stack Dev above is 428 hours in, which puts it at Apprentice: past Novice, still short of Adept.

Integrated with Focus Sessions
You don't have to manually log time. Tag a quest or habit with a Skill, then run a Focus Session against it — the tracked hours are credited to that Skill automatically when the session ends.
