story behind trak.

Trak started from a point where I felt unfocused.

I was jumping between technologies, frameworks, and ideas. I had studied computer science, but I still didn't feel like I had gotten what I wanted from it — I hadn't gone deep into anything yet.

So I made a decision: I would focus on one language - Swift.

I also wanted a way to track how much time I was actually spending in focused study. I imagined being able to say:

"I've spent 345 hours learning Swift, and this is what I built."

That idea became Trak.

At first, it was just a simple tool to log study sessions. But while building trakCLI (repo link), something changed. It became personal.

Because building Trak itself became proof:

• that I could stay consistent
• that I could finish what I started
• that I could build something from my own ideas

Trak didn't just track my consistency. It helped create it.

Now I'm building Trak for iOS. I don't fully know where it will lead yet — but that's part of the story.

Trak started as a tool to track time. It became a project that tracks growth.
