A personal time tracking application in its infancy.
Currently, it does very little. It docks into the system tray thanks to JDIC
for Windows as well as Linux and Solaris. It records times spend on a task together with a comment and stores this
for future reference in a table of a relational database. At this time,
HSQLDB is the
only supported database.
There are two main ideas behind the time tracker: First, it is born out of necessity for a open source personal time tracker with the desired feature set and second, it serves a little as a playground for interesting technologies. Therefore, it is not designed to be as small as possible but as elegantly implemented and extensible as possible.
Future plans:
The following features are planned along the way to a 1.0 release:
- create a user interface that stays out of your way
- provide visual feedback through the tray icon
- support hierarchically organized tasks
for practical reasons limited to a depth of 3: project - area - task - export defined time range to spread sheet format
- keep track whether a project may be billed to eg a customer or your boss and which times have already been billed
- support iterations or sprints
- keep track of budgets per project
- support time boxing ie remind if working on a task for more than the allotted time
- track expected remaining effort figures for tasks
