Code Garden Veyra

Your coding grows a garden.

A little garden lives in your editor and grows while you work. Saving waters it, fixing your last error brings butterflies, every commit makes a flower bloom, and coding streaks unlock rare plants to collect.

A sunny code garden: a daisy, tulip, sunflower bud, lavender, a cherry blossom tree and glowing mushrooms in front of a wooden fence
FEATURES

Steady work, made visible.

It grows while you code

Every minute you’re typing helps your plants grow: seed, sprout, leaves, bud and bloom. A new seed sprouts every 20 minutes.

Saving waters it

Watered soil grows plants at full speed. Leave it a day and they droop, but nothing ever dies. One save and it rains.

Butterflies for fixes

Fix your last error and butterflies flutter in, and every plant gets a boost.

Commits make flowers bloom

Every commit makes your most grown plant burst into flower.

Streaks unlock rare plants

Nine species to collect, from the daisy to the golden Veyra Bloom for a 30-day streak.

A collection to fill

When the garden is full, the oldest bloom is pressed into your collection to make room.

Day and night

Sunrise, clouds and bees by day; stars, fireflies and glowing mushrooms at night, following your clock.

Share your garden

Save a picture of your garden with your streak underneath, ready for X, LinkedIn or the team chat.

Private and light

It never reads your code and never connects to the internet. About 60 KB, and it syncs with Settings Sync.

The garden at night: every species in bloom under the moon and stars, with fireflies and glowing mushrooms

FAQ

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. Code Garden is free and MIT licensed, with no account and no telemetry.

What counts as coding?

A minute in which you typed in a file while VS Code was focused. Reading, idle time and typing in the terminal don’t count.

Can my plants die?

No. A dry garden droops and grows at half speed, and the next save waters it again. A garden you forget for a month is still there when you come back.

Does it read my code?

No. It only counts minutes, saves, the moment your errors reach zero, and commits from VS Code’s built-in Git. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Where is it?

In the Code Garden view at the bottom of the Explorer, with your streak in the status bar. You can also open it in a bigger panel.

Does it work in Cursor and VSCodium?

Yes, it’s a regular VS Code extension: install the .vsix with “Extensions: Install from VSIX…”.
