Self-Hosted

Open-source, self-hosted time tracking with flexible tagging

Key features include a visual dashboard with stats, calendar view for daily entries, and goal tracking for specific tags. Deployment is simple via Docker Compose, with minimal resource needs—perfect for personal or small team use. It prioritizes privacy by keeping data on your server, no cloud reliance.
