Show HN: Nestly – A simple nested time tracker

Hello HN!<p>I&#x27;m sharing a small project I built with two other students. We built it in three weeks for a UI&#x2F;design class back in April of this year. Nestly is a nested time tracker. It&#x27;s similar to Dynalist and Workflowy in the sense that you can nest items as much as you want, but in this case each item is something that can be individually time tracked. It also supports rudimentary tagging (for cross item tracking) and time breakdown graphs.<p>Sites like toggl only supported two (maybe three?) layers of tracking, which always put me into decision paralysis - was I organizing my time categories in the right way? Would I need to revamp the whole system in the future as my roles and responsibilities changed? Infinite nesting solves that problem (though it doesn&#x27;t work for everyone).<p>Note that the project was primarily built for a class - we don&#x27;t anticipate working on it more or adding a bunch of new features. It&#x27;s in a &quot;finished&quot; state.<p>The site was built with Tachyons, using the Nord color scheme, and VueJS. There is no backend - all data is persisted locally on the machine itself. I&#x27;m happy to answer any questions about the tech stack or anything else!

Are people using time trackers that are web sites, not native apps?<p>I kinda expected something apart from web browser to track my browsing activity, apart from other things. I don&#x27;t know much about time tracking, though. Hope others more familiar with the niche will comment.
