Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
I came up with a file format for time-tracking, which lets me store the data in plain-text files in a human-friendly notation. I also built a corresponding CLI tool for evaluating the files on the terminal.
I’ve been using it almost daily for the past couple of years, and so far it has served me quite well.

How do you properly break down tasks?
Start with some time tracking tool - a) you need to do some regular work on a project (and if it is just 2 hours on a weekend), b) you need to know where all the time ended up.

Please take a look at my Development Plan!
Very important is also to actually measuring the time, otherwise you won't get better at estimating. There are probably lots of options for timer-apps, so find something that works for you. Personally I use gtimelog.

Show HN: Time tracking with plain text files
I have been using the format used by gtimelog[1] for years. It has the benefit of adding one entry per line, so processing is extremely simple.
