Hi! I worked on this as a side project because I wanted to test the new web based 3D engine - https://www.babylonjs.com/. It quickly grew into something I actually wanted to do for a while - a free, easy to use, and beautifully visualized breathing techniques app. Recently I moved the project to this new domain - https://breathing.tips and refactored a bit so that it's super easy to add new tips with minimal HTML skills. I’ve been sharing it with people on reddit and I'm getting pretty positive feedback so far, so I decided to share it here as well. Let me know what you like (or not). Here's what I think is cool about it:

- Free & open source

- Minimalistic and easy to use. No apps, no logins, no charts

- Looks great on both mobile and desktop

The most popular tips, it seems, are the anxiety and relaxation ones. What other technique would you like to see?

Have you tested it out on iOS 14.2 safari? I see a marble-like globe in the centre and can move the camera around, but that’s all.
Thanks for trying it out. You need to click the ball to start the exercise. It seems this is a UX problem I need to get around, as you’re the second person mentioning that.
