## What it is
Moodist is a free, open-source web application offering 84 curated ambient sounds that users can layer into custom soundscapes for focus, relaxation, and sleep. It is self-hostable via Docker and ships as an installable PWA with extras like binaural beats, breathing exercises, a Pomodoro timer, and shareable mixes.

## Use cases
- play ambient sounds while working to improve focus
- generate white, pink, or brown noise for sleep
- layer rain, waves, and cafe sounds into a custom soundscape
- self-host an ad-free ambient sound generator with Docker
- use a Pomodoro timer and breathing exercises alongside focus sounds
- share a saved sound mix with friends via URL

## When to choose
- you want a free, subscription-free alternative to paid ambient sound apps
- you prefer self-hosting your tools for privacy
- you need an offline-capable PWA with layered soundscapes and productivity extras

## When to avoid
- you need original or licensed music tracks rather than ambient noise loops
- you require a native mobile or desktop app rather than a web app
- you need advanced audio editing or mixing features beyond simple layering
