v0.11.1
Writers's Trail is a tool designed by a writer for writers so they can see charts and statistics about their custom defined projects and targets. This web application asks for your writing sessions and generate useful information from inserted data.
Now you can have that NaNoWriMo feel any time in the year. Create targets for any amount of words and time you want.
Life got in the way? Change the target midway to something you know you can make.
Or increase the target word count if it got too easy.
Know all the time you have written. Keep notes for yourself about how you felt in that session.
You can make a summary to make it easier to find a specific session later on.
Individual progress bars for each project, unrelated to defined targets.
See how close you are of finishing that pet project of yours.
Mark projects as finished and/or inactive. Inactive projects will be hidden from the main dashboard.
You can see a summary of your statistics and know what are the best session length for you.
Know how much you have written and the period of day you are most productive.
All that without leaving your main dashboard.
Choose your preferred date and time format and select which data you'll see in your targets charts by default.
Reset the application tour or cancel it any time you want.
Classify your projects in any way you want. A default set is provided but you can add, remove or change them at your will.
If you want to set genres as formats (novel, short story, essay, etc.) that's fine too! Writer's Trail is meant to be very customizable.
Time your sessions on the web page and have the fields filled for you. If you see yourself using always the same session length, you can also define a default timer in your settings.
A lot of information about your writing habits condensed in a single page. Things that you didn't know that you wanted to now are now available.
See your best performance and try to beat it. See also your average and modes and try to change (or keep) them. It's your call!
A neat way to compare your writing habits. See at one glance if you are a person of the day or like to pass your nights by the keyboard.
Those are just a peak. There are a few more charts and also some more yet to come! Provide some feedback if you want to see something else.
There's a part of Writer's Trail dedicated to user feedback. You can post suggestions, useful comments and bugs. You can also vote on other users feedback so we can know what everyone want.
Also, there's a chat on Gitter where anyone can discuss ideas about features, bugs and suggestions in real time.
If you want to contribute with code, send a pull request to our GitHub repository. Don't forget to look at the issues and comment you are working on it. If you want to make something new, please open an issue before starting. Since this is a personal project (at least for now) then I cherish some features over another, though I'm always listening to users requests.
