TypeLog
An Obsidian plugin for typing statistics. It tracks net output (words remaining in the file) and total input (every keystroke, including deletions and rewrites) separately. All data is stored locally.
Features
- Dual-track statistics: net word count vs. total input (deletions and rewrites included)
- Active time tracking: pauses automatically after a configurable idle period
- Typing speed: real-time CPM over a 60-second sliding window, plus session peak
- Daily goals: word/time targets with ring progress (values above 100% shown as-is)
- Typing heatmap: monthly calendar grid, per-minute word-growth chart
- Three-layer storage: file / project / global statistics, JSON and CSV export
- Pomodoro reminder: optional break reminder after continuous active editing
