Minimal Start/Stop app for tracking billable hours (Tauri)

Hacker News

I needed a super simple way to track billable hours, just Start when working and Stop when done. Existing tools felt heavy. So I built a tiny desktop app (macOS + Windows): - start/stop only - project/client - data stored locally - free & open source Demo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19ijgUzdIawszL2qVmWDaF3lkQvg... Code: https://github.com/HustleCoding/time-tracker Feedback welcome, especially what would make it useful for real freelance work.
