DevCoach

DevCoach is a VS Code extension that acts as your personal coding coach. It tracks your coding activity, builds smart sessions, and helps you maintain healthier work habits through real-time feedback and reminders.

🚀 What it does

DevCoach runs silently in the background while you code and turns your activity into useful insights:

• Tracks your coding sessions automatically
• Monitors time spent per programming language
• Sends smart break and focus reminders
• Detects inactivity and encourages you to stay engaged
• Prevents burnout with adaptive alerts
• Encourages healthier coding routines

⚙️ Features

⏱️ Smart Session Tracking

DevCoach automatically detects when you start and stop coding, building structured sessions based on real activity instead of fixed timers.

☕ Break Reminders

You’ll receive reminders every 2 hours of active coding to take breaks and reset focus.

💤 Idle Detection

If you stop coding, DevCoach detects inactivity and responds with motivational messages to help you get back on track.

📊 Language Analytics

DevCoach tracks which programming languages you use and shows daily usage breakdowns.

Example:

• TypeScript: 65%
• JavaScript: 25%
• JSON: 10%

🔥 Burnout Protection

DevCoach monitors your total daily coding time and warns you when you’re overworking:

• 4h → gentle reminder
• 6h → strong warning
• 8h → burnout prevention alert

🌙 Sleep Awareness

Late-night coding sessions are detected, and DevCoach reminds you when it’s time to rest.
