TIMEMINATOR is a self-hosted, open-source time tracker for freelancers and small teams. It gives you a live start/stop timer plus manual bookings over a clean client, project, task and time-entry model, with built-in statistics and charts.
Built for easy deployment: it runs on ordinary PHP shared hosting with no Composer, no build step and no Docker - upload the files, open the browser, done - or locally on SQLite with zero infrastructure. Every booking keeps its origin and whole imports can be rolled back, so your data stays auditable. No time data ever leaves your server.
The Community edition is free and MIT-licensed. An optional Pro edition adds planning, invoicing, quote calculation and accounting connectors.
