A Chrome extension for automatic time tracking with project-based logging, idle detection, and real-time dashboard sync.
Built this because I needed accurate time tracking without manual input. The extension captures active tabs, detects idle time, and syncs everything with the portfolio dashboard.
Used Manifest V3 with service workers for background processing. The popup shows today's hours and lets you switch between projects quickly.
The biggest challenge was handling the idle detection accurately without draining battery. Solved it with Chrome's idle API combined with smart polling intervals.
Let's discuss how I can help bring your next project to life with the same quality and attention to detail.
