Code Time is an open source plugin for automatic programming metrics and time tracking, right in your editor. Now you can use data to improve as a developer and get the job or promotion you deserve.
Hey Product Hunt!
Today we’re excited to announce the newest version of Code Time, our open source plugin for automatic time-tracking and programming metrics.
Code Time 2.0 makes it easier than ever to see all of your coding data and improve as a developer. We’ve added tons of new features to help developers level up faster.
What’s new:
📊 Easily find your coding stats in your editor. Our all-new in-editor UI lets you keep your coding data at your fingertips with the new Code Time panel right in your code editor. You’ll have quick access to your activity metrics like code time, editor time, velocity, and commits—including your daily averages for each.
💪 Set daily coding goals. We make it easy to track your progress and reach your goals. You can now set custom code time and code start time goals each day.
💻 Track code time vs. active code time. Not all development tasks—like debugging or reviewing code—require active coding. Code Time now tracks how much time you spend in your code editor or IDE each day vs. writing code.
📬 Revamped weekly email reports. We’ve redesigned our weekly email reports to send you a summary of your coding activity, top projects, and more—straight to your inbox.
🌙 Sleek new dark theme. Our web app now lets you switch between light and dark themes, so you can check your coding stats with style.
📅 Connect your calendar. Link your Google Calendar to your Software account to visualize your coding sessions and protect code time from meetings.
It’s easy to get started. Simply install the Code Time plugin for your favorite code editor—including VS Code, Atom, Visual Studio, IntelliJ, and many other code editors and IDEs.
You get 90 days of free data, then someday in the future you may see a premium version with unlimited data history for a modest charge. For now, it’s all free.
We’d love to hear your feedback and are happy to answer any questions.
Happy coding!
@geoffstevens Geoff, what an amazing product idea. I spend hours on Visual Studio every day so I'm really excited about tracking my coding habits. Thanks!
Love code time! Whether I am just coding myself or helping my team be more effective code time is becoming an essential tool for us!
Great work @geoffstevens and team!
You guys are making some exceptional software. Really impressed and just installed both your products and also subscribed to the newslist. Great work! (domain is pretty cool, too. Curious how you swung getting software.com)
Hi @imknight - After installing the plugin, at the top of the sidebar on the left are options to connect Google, GitHub, or email. After clicking on one of those options, your web account will be linked! Let me know if you have any questions
@andrewhli any screen shot for that ? using sublime text here and don't see any option to click and the package instruction doesn't say anything as well
Hi @imknight - Great question. To enable the sidebar, click Tools menu > Code Time > Show Tree View. At the top of the sidebar are the options to connect the web account. We'll be sure to add the instructions to the package this morning
Amazing product. Huge fan since it's early days. This is the only time tracker that I know that can accurately tell me how much time i spend coding any of the projects I'm involved.
Big thank you for making this possible!
@astrot hey, really sorry to hear you're having issues. Could you open an issue in our repo on GitHub (https://github.com/swdotcom/swdc...) with more details? Hopefully we can help resolve the problem for you.
EnjoyHint
