What it does:
- Tracks your active coding time automatically

- Generates GitHub-style heatmaps of your activity
- Works seamlessly with both light and dark VS Code themes
- Zero configuration needed - just install and code!
Key Features:
📊 Project-wise Time Tracking
See exactly how much time you spend on each project
Break down time by day/week/month
Perfect for freelancers tracking billable hours
🗺️ Activity Heatmap
Visual representation of your coding patterns
Quickly identify your most productive days

📈 Real-time Stats

*Why I made this: *
I needed a simple way to track my coding time across different projects without switching between apps or manually logging hours. I thought others might find it useful, too!
