Self-hostable Wakatime alternative for code time tracking

I searched the whole internet for a good wakatime alternative that is open-source and doesn't have a bad UI while being lightweight and fast.

I was unable to find anything good so that's why I built Ziit a code time tracking software with a minimal and clean UI heavily inspired by Plausible Analytics because most people are already familiar with that UI.

I appreciate every star and welcome feedback or bug reports. https://github.com/0PandaDEV/Ziit

If you want to use it but don't want to self-host it, you can make an account on the public instance at https://ziit.app/

UI looks pretty good. I'll need a tracker like this shortly.

I see you can track by project, but is there a way to track by time to implement X feature in project Y?

It integrates with VS Code. Can time also be entered manually?

That is actually a cool idea, being able to track a certain feature or even to track how much time passed between two git commits.

As for manual time, no, that is not supported.
