This thought is what triggered me to try and build an offline web app - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44930814

After building this, I realise that we need a standalone electron that can download and run offline apps that are more complex.

My colleague uses 2 kitchen timers to track daily progress on his two main projects. I was inspired by this to create an open source app but for yearly goals - https://github.com/anyg-me/goals-tracker

Tell us more about the kitchen timer system!

He has two main projects - A & B. Currently A takes up 80% of his time and B takes up 20%. He uses the timers to track time on each project with the goal of transitioning to 80% on B.

spentMinutes should be an array of objects with a timestamp, ie:

  spentMinutes: [
    {time: 20, at: "2025-08-14T22:33:19.419Z"},
    {time: 35, at: "2025-08-16T22:33:19.419Z"}
  ]
