IDE Plugins
PanDev Metrics plugins are lightweight modules installed inside your development environment. They automatically capture developer activity and send telemetry to PanDev Metrics — no manual time tracking required.
Key Features
- Zero-click tracking — developers never start or stop tracking manually
- Privacy-first — no screenshots, screen recordings, or source code capture
- Secure — data transmitted over HTTPS/TLS
- Configurable — exclude specific files, directories, or projects
