TimeTagger is a time tracking app that helps keep track of the time spent on various tasks. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install TimeTagger on Elementary OS.
The first step is to download the AppImage file for TimeTagger from the official website using the following command:
wget https://timetagger.app/latest/timetagger-x64.AppImage
Once the download is complete, make the downloaded file executable by running the following command:
chmod +x timetagger-x64.AppImage
Now, we need to create a directory for TimeTagger. You can create a new directory in your home directory with the following command:
mkdir ~/timetagger
Move the downloaded file to the new directory with the following command:
mv timetagger-x64.AppImage ~/timetagger
Now you can launch TimeTagger from the Terminal using the following command:
~/timetagger/timetagger-x64.AppImage
If you want to create a desktop shortcut, create a new file using the following command:
nano ~/.local/share/applications/timetagger.desktop
In the editor, add the following lines of code:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=TimeTagger
Exec=/home/<username>/timetagger/timetagger-x64.AppImage
Icon=/home/<username>/timetagger/timetagger.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Office;
Replace <username>
with your username.
Once you have added the code, save the file and exit the editor.
Now you can open TimeTagger from the Applications menu or by searching for it in the search bar.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed TimeTagger on Elementary OS.
