Time Tracker Live (Phoenix LiveView)

A primitive time tracker built as part of a creative microcycle project. This is an experiment in building functional software over perfect code, using Phoenix LiveView in a fullstack way, with minimal JavaScript.

📦 Features (MVP)

• Start/stop a timer
• Add a description to a task
• Show a list of completed entries
• Preserve timer state across browser sessions
• Sync start/stop between multiple open browser windows
• Session-level user differentiation (no login)

🔧 Under the Hood

• Phoenix LiveView (Elixir)
• GenServer for in-memory state
• PubSub for real-time sync
• cookie or localStorage for session ID

🎯 Development Goals

• Explore fullstack development in a functional paradigm
• Avoid premature optimization or visual polish
• Build iteratively from general to specific
