Hi! Codeforces community
I have created a chrome extension that can tell you the amount of time you have spent on a problem from the moment you open it up for the first time. The extension keeps track of the active window and thus the time increases only for that particular window. It uses chrome local storage to store the data. In this way, it picks up from where it left off. The extension overwrites the data every 10 seconds.
I believe that it could help newbies, pupils and maybe higher rated people to increase their speed. Any suggestions for improvements or any bugs found are appreciated, and I would love it if you guys try this out.
And lastly, I am sorry for any grammatical errors I made, English is not my native language.
Great extension for tracking time even during practice. I feel it will definitely help me improve.
The extension is super great !! <3
Can you make it available for Firefox ?
The timer remains the same for that particular problem when I log in to codeforces with another account.
A reset button would be appreciated. As sometimes we need to solve the problems again after a period of time.
I was checking your timer, seconds comes back to x1 after refresh and hour, minutes remain constant. [curTime = 00:02:24, after refresh-> curTime = 00:02:21]
I would work on it, however, I cannot do much about what you mentioned in the third point. If I update the time every second, my extension may interfere with other extensions installed on chrome since chrome has a limit to how much reading and writing an extension can do in one minute.
I will work on the other two mentioned.
when I log in to codeforces with another account.that's illegalalso on switching tabs.
Just curious, which language did you use?
Another CF Tracker already exists, I'd suggest renaming this one. Also, a firefox addon of this would be great, which you can publish for free.
Great tool to keep a track of time invested per question!
I have this extension called taper monkey to use codeforces dark mode and with the extension enabled, I can barely see the timer. Hopefully you'll be able to fix this. Thanks!
Dude how do I reset the timer?
