The intent is to provide an up-to-date, lightweight tool for anyone trying to quickly understand take-home pay. The design goal was simplicity: one page, minimal inputs, instant breakdown.
Questions for the community: • What additional features would actually make this more useful (e.g., 401k, health deductions, local taxes)? • Would people prefer a simple “quick estimate” vs. a more configurable advanced mode? • From a technical/product perspective, what would you change or add?
Feedback is welcome, especially from those who have dealt with paycheck calculators before or have strong opinions on usability.
