About Timewarrior
Timewarrior tracks time from the command line. You start and stop tracking with short commands and tag the time with what you were working on, then review the recorded time later. It suits people who spend their day in a terminal and want time tracking without a web service or a graphical app.
The project is maintained, with version 1.10.0 released on 2 August 2026. Source tarballs are published on the website, and the documentation lists binary packages and installation steps.
