Show HN: My side project – Laps – Client, Project and Time management

Time tracking and to-do lists -- a good sign that nobody has really done it well is that people keep trying to recreate it. Or maybe it's just an easy subject for people to use as a project.

This looks nice, but for me nothing beats org-mode in Emacs.

Thanks for your comment! The main reason why i chose to build Laps as a time tracking and invoicing tool is that - i can do it. As everything is bootstrapped i decided to build something relatively simple but that works very well, and then extend it wit some complex features if the base is good rather than building something very complex and unclear from ground up.

I think it is an easy subject for non-imaginative minds.

Not talking about this specific project.

Unpopular opinion it seems, but I agree. Not that it is a bad thing. It would be fun to see statistics of how many people here have at some point in their (probably early) career built their own time tracking/project management app.

Low hanging fruit.
