Read full descriptionHide full description
Chronicle is a work journal designed to help you track what you actually did - not just what was easy to find later. Pull requests and published posts are easy to surface at review time. The Slack conversation where you unblocked a teammate, the thorough code review, the new hire you helped onboard - those are harder to remember and easy to leave off your self-evaluation. Chronicle gives you a lightweight place to log them as they happen, so that when review season comes around, your record is already there. Weekly goals, always in reach Create a pinned entry for your weekly priorities and it stays at the top of your list all week. When the week ends, pin your new goals - the old ones are archived alongside everything you logged, giving you context for how your priorities evolved over time. Organized when you need it Filter your entries by tag, date range, or both. At review time, pull up everything from the last period with a relevant tag and you have the raw material for a brag document - without having to reconstruct it from memory. iCloud sync Your entries are stored in your private iCloud account and sync across your iPhone and Mac. Your data belongs to you. Chronicle is a side project built to solve a real problem. It's opinionated, fast, and gets out of the way.
