Talking about love at first sight is difficult, but after I met wakatime I never let go. Very good, that and developer knows how nice it is to compete that is coding more hahahah. The only thing that leaves something to be desired, as it collects the urls used by the user. It could recognize as a tool as the url of Colab, from aws. Since they are ides or platforms that are used by developers. That there is not adding to the dashboard as a browser, but as a tool or language. Since it does not have the typical tracking of ides.
