Hey DEV community! 👋
I wanted to share a VS Code extension I built that helps developers track their coding activity without compromising privacy. Unlike other tracking solutions that require accounts or send data to external servers, this extension keeps everything local.
Why I Built This
As a developer, I wanted to understand my coding patterns better, but I wasn't comfortable with sending my activity data to third-party servers. Most existing solutions required accounts or had complex setups, so I decided to build something simpler.
Features
🕒 Real-time activity tracking
📊 GitHub integration for repository insights
🔒 100% local data storage
📈 Activity visible in VS Code's status bar
⚡ Zero configuration needed
