Have you ever wondered how much time you spend actually coding?
This extension counts time spent on doing your actual job instead of checking out Reddit or Instagram.
Any modification of a file results in starting the timer, which counts as long as you are active.
The delay after the counting is frozen can be set in configuration.
There is also an option to control how the data is persisted. By default, the counter keeps track of time for a day, and it is cleaned up
the next day. There are also options to either keep it continuously or to not persist the timer value between sessions at all.
- Install the extension in
