TimeAndPlace

🍎 Logger software. This software needs a good written description. Until then, see the help file.

While this software was written entirely by me, it was based on the Bluepanel software written by Ethan Gallant (Volxz).

🎯 Ethan Gallant provided the inspiration, design, prototyping, and beta testing for the bulk of this project via his BluePanel app.

🍊 You can see a working demonstration of TimeAndPlace at https://demo.iquark.ca
