I really like this. Had a quick play with the hosted demo before the Application Error started appearing. Going to install it on a server myself tonight. It would be great if there were more 'offline' activities. I see you plan on adding RunKeeper. I'd also like to see Nike+ and other wearable trackers (FitBit, Withings scale etc.). I noticed a minor bug in the hosted version, so I filed an issue.


I've been thinking about building something like this for ages but never got around to it.

I'm working on a book about deploying rails applications and was hacking together a script at the weekend to extract words written per day from the git diffs. Will link it up to a version of this so can easily chart it and see when I'm slipping.

Looks like a great tool, good work!


Instance example at http://www.reportr.io/


I've integrated reportr into my small counter app over the weekend: https://github.com/janhancic/CigaretteCounter

Really love the thing and hopefully I'll contribute some more in the future.


It's an interesting idea and kudos for making it open source. But ... what need does it serve? Is there any killer app?

A startup usually has a dashboard to keep track of metrics, which show if it's on track for it's goals. Is that the idea here? Keeping track of goals?


It helps you visualize your activity online and offline: activity on twitter, running, coding activity, ...

It's not a startup, just a tool, I built for myself, it's for people, not for startup.


This is an amazing project, thanks for building this, I'm going to try this out. Naveen, cofounder of Foursquare, has been tracking his life - http://api.naveen.com/ in a similar way.


I've built and have been using something very similar internally but it's not nearly as visually polished. Thanks for this!


This looks cool and I want to contribute. I look forward to messing around with this at lunchtime :)


I like the look of this, though the install your own link does not work?


Oh.. I forgot to change the href value to the github url..


Host it on Clever Cloud so no more "application error" ;)


reportr.io is empty on firefox.

This looks like a great start, but I'm wondering if there are any working personal dashboards already in existence. Any recommendations?


Well you could build one quick with fnordmetric https://github.com/paulasmuth/fnordmetric In fact looking at the screenshots of reportr it looks very like fnordmetric as well.


what's your definition of "working personal dashboards"?

just curious :)


An online application that tracks online and offline tasks, personal analytics, events, contacts and goals and presents it visually on a single screen (I like rainbows and unicorns too).

Reportr isn't actually operational I take it, since I get an application error every time I try to sign up.
