Productivity Tracker Extension

This project is a work-in-progress browser extension that tracks the time spent on different websites. The extension aims to provide insights into browsing habits by displaying the top visited websites and the time spent on each. It includes a simple and intuitive user interface with an option to expand the list to show all tracked websites.

Features

  • Time Tracking: Automatically tracks the time spent on each website.
  • Top 5 Websites: Displays the top 5 most visited websites with the time spent on each.
  • Expandable List: Allows users to expand the list to view all tracked websites.
  • Visual Representation: Includes a linear representation of time spent on each website.
