A timer application, inspired by chess stopwatches.
This application was developed as a side project back in 2015. At the time I was task switching between billable projects for an employer. Understandably, my employer required detailed reports so that costs could be allocated. Therefore, I needed a method of recording my time and to quickly switch tasks, like a chess timer.
In the 2000’s I worked for several law firms. They all used an application called Carpe Diem. A feature of this application was “SmarTimers”.
With this image to hand I set about building my own version.
At the time it proved to be successful. Overtime more and more colleagues used it.
Please note MS Excel is required to export timer data to a spreadsheet.
Download the solution and compile a release version. Within the /bin/release folder you will find the .exe. No installation required.
