pocketwatch - Self-hosted minimal time tracking.

Every time tracker wants an account, a subscription and your data on someone else's server. I just wanted: click start, click stop, and a PDF at the end of the month. So I built my own.

Platform: Docker (Linux, Windows, NAS, Raspberry Pi):

  • One-click start/stop, live timer
  • PDF and CSV export
  • Fully self-hosted - no account, no cloud, no tracking

pocketwatch - open source, self-hosted time tracking. No account, no cloud, no subscription.

Free and open source (MIT). I'm the developer.

Freelance time tracker: one click to clock in, one to clock out, PDF or CSV export for invoicing. Your hours stay in two JSON files on your own machine — no signup, no server of mine involved.

Try it right now, nothing to install: https://winnicodes.github.io/pocketwatch/ That's the real app in a single HTML file, not a mockup.

Self-host it: docker run -d -p 8080:80 -v "$(pwd)/data:/var/www/html/data" ghcr.io/winnicodes/pocketwatch:latest

Built for one person on their own LAN — no multi-user, no auth on the API, so keep it off the open internet.

Feedback welcome, especially from anyone who invoices hourly.
