Automatic time tracking for Visual Studio. JustClock runs quietly in the background, measures how much time you actually spend working on each project, and syncs it to your account at https://justclock.dev.
Features
Automatic tracking — starts the moment Visual Studio loads, no manual start/stop.
Per-project time — detects the current project from the open solution (.sln) or folder (Open Folder mode).
Smart idle detection — pauses only on real inactivity, not just because you switched to a terminal, browser, or compiler while still working. Idle timeout is configurable.
Status bar indicator — always shows what's happening: working, idle, running in the background, or needs configuration.
Privacy by design — nothing is sent anywhere until you provide an API key and explicitly accept the privacy policy. Until then, time is tracked locally only.

Privacy
JustClock collects only two things: project name and time spent, in seconds. No source code, file contents, or keystrokes are ever read or transmitted. Data leaves your machine only after you enter an API key and accept the privacy policy — see the full Privacy Policy.
Requirements
Visual Studio 2022 (Community, Professional, or Enterprise), version 17.14 or later
