Momentum-Based 'Forgiving' Habit Tracker

A habit tracker designed specifically to solve the 'going back to zero' problem. Instead of binary streaks that break on a single missed day, it uses a 'Momentum Score' (0-100) that degrades slowly, allowing users to have a messy day without losing all psychological progress.
