Here's my little django website to help track how long you've spent working toward a specific goal.

I Did It for… uses the Django python framework to create an useful application for tracking the time you've spent working toward a project or goal or something you are learning. I went with a bright bold design that represents an interesting contrast to many of my other projects.
As usual, it has optional passkey authentication so you can log in instantly with the biometrics already present on your device. In addition to full CRUD functionality, it has Django's excellent administration backend for even finer control of what is present in the database.
By using htmx, I was able to create an experience that has the responsiveness of a single-page app, with the simplicity of a server-rendered application.
Milestone based motivation can be effective, but can also be discouraging when you miss your milestones. The reality is that the most important factor in accomplishing something (especially learning something), is consistently spending time on it.
By tracking the time spent on somthing rather than milestone accomplishments, you will accomplish your goals in the same amount of time as you would have otherwise, but feel more motivated while doing it.
