Dakota Brown developed and enhanced the HealthNoteLabs/Runstr repository over two months, delivering 28 features and resolving 20 bugs. He built a scalable team events system with real-time tracking, progressive loading, and a minimalist UI, improving user engagement and operational stability. Dakota implemented a subscription system, integrated Pokey push notifications, and refactored authentication using Amber, focusing on security and reliability. His work spanned full-stack development, including React Native, TypeScript, and native Android integration, with attention to GPS tracking and performance optimization. The engineering demonstrated depth in API integration, debugging, and state management, resulting in measurable improvements to user experience and platform consistency.

In August 2025, HealthNoteLabs/Runstr delivered a set of business-value features and stability improvements that strengthened monetization, user engagement, security, and reliability. Key features include a new subscription system with workout plan features, real-time push notifications via Pokey for Nostr events, a camera option in post-to-nostr flows, and UI/theme enhancements for consistency and readability. Security and authentication were greatly improved through Amber-focused authentication work, AuthService refactor, and a major upgrade to authentication and GPS tracking. Release v0.7.1 formalized these upgrades with a focus on enhanced security and GPS reliability. Additionally, several reliability fixes (join button behavior, distance filtering, deep linking) removed friction and improved consistency across platforms. This work demonstrates strong full-stack capability across frontend, native integration, and backend orchestration, delivering measurable business value and improved developer velocity.
