track-focus

Tracking daily focus with the Forest app

So you track how much you focus, perhaps for work or your studies. Have you ever thought, "I need to focus X hours per day"? But how do you know if you're meeting this target? Enter track-focus!

All you need is a CSV file exported from your Forest app.

Install

To start using track-focus, install Go and run go install:

go install github.com/armmam/track-focus@latest

  1. How many hours per day you want to be focusing (defaults to 8)
  2. Whether you want a .csv file with your data or a nice chart
