Work-logging / time-tracking tool suggestions?
Hey fellow hackers,
Are there any good, simple, ideally open source tools you personally use to track your daily work? (emphasis on "personally", please don't plug a product you don't use yourself).
I'd like to be able to log my work for the day and have some sort of calendar view so I can look back at it and see how I spent my month work-wise.
Cheers,
I've been using TMetric app for a couple of years, at work. Shortly, handy and full-featured tool. Several kinds of reports are available, offline mode, invoicing+billing etc. You can check by yourself :) https://tmetric.com/
I've been using https://clockify.me for the last 3 years or so, both for personal stuff and for work-related projects. It's simple and free and it's got good reports, summaries and analytics.
Regardless of the tool, it's just a matter of getting used to playing and pausing the timer.
I am using the Timesheet app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rauscha.apps.timesheet&hl=de) on Android. I don't think its open source, though. Everything I develop (for myself or for clients) is a project so I can easily see how much work I have done across all the projects for a specific time frame.
I used Toggl to log all my time when I was building my SaaS platform. Once you get into the routine of starting and stopping the timer it becomes second nature. Toggl also ticked both my boxes of being free and having a mobile app so you can have your timer next to you on your phone. I wrote a blog post with all my toggl data in graphs if you are interested
Nice, thanks for sharing.
