Quick update on Timinute for anyone following along.
v2.2 just shipped. The main things in it: Docker support, so you can run Timinute in a container instead of setting up .NET yourself, and tags. You can now label your tracked tasks and filter by them, not just by project. A batch of smaller fixes from code review went in too.
Tags are done, not just planned. I know I said "planning to add tags" before. They are already in and working.
What is coming in v2.3
Two things, and honestly the boring one might matter more.
1. Real analytics. Right now the dashboard gives you a basic "today and this week" view. v2.3 adds a proper analytics page. You pick a date range (this week, last month, this year, or your own custom range) and see:
How much time you tracked in total, and how many active days
A daily trend chart, with a line showing your own goal so you can see if you are hitting it
A breakdown by project
A breakdown by tag, now that tags exist
It is the kind of thing that turns "I think I worked a lot on that project" into an actual answer.
2. A tech debt sweep. Less exciting to read about, more important than it sounds. A few examples:
Turning the automated build and test pipeline back on. It got quietly disabled and nobody caught it for a while. That is now fixed.
Splitting one huge constants file into smaller ones per topic
Adding basic request logging, off by default, so I can actually debug production issues instead of guessing
Laying groundwork for API versioning, so future changes do not break existing clients
None of this changes what you see in the app. All of it makes the app easier for me to keep building without breaking things.
What about MCP?
Still just an idea in my head for now, not part of v2.3. If it turns into something real, you will hear about it here first.
If you self-host Timinute and there is a specific analytics view you would actually use, tell me. Still shaping the details on the client side and real feedback beats me guessing.
