Devcord
Devcord is a CLI tool designed to help you quickly manage your tasks as well as help you monitor your time usage. Along with all the essential to-do list functionalities, Devcord allows you to select a task and start a session on it.
During a session, your time-spent on each of your activity is monitored for you to view later. This is useful for people who want to find out where their time is spent.
None of the data is stored on any server, it is all stored locally on your machine.
Installation
Install Devcord using pip
pip install --upgrade special-octo-robot
Post Installation
