I built an offline time tracker + invoice maker for freelancers because I was tired of paying monthly fees

[u/Waste-Mycologist-320]

Hi everyone! I'm a freelancer and I got tired of paying $10–20/month for time tracking and invoicing tools, so I built my own: HourLedger.

What it does:

- One-click timer that survives browser closes and restarts

- Turns tracked hours into a PDF invoice (grouped by project, day or entry)

- Tracks draft / sent / overdue / paid automatically

- Multi-currency, so you can bill each client in their own currency

- Dashboard with monthly income and real income per billable hour

What makes it different:

- Works 100% offline, no account, no cloud

- Data stays in your own browser, with one-click backup and restore

- One-time purchase instead of a subscription

Tech: plain JavaScript, no frameworks, no server. You just open an HTML file.

I'd really appreciate honest feedback:

1. Would you trust an offline tool for your invoicing?

2. What feature would make you switch from your current tool?
