About Kawaii Time Garden — Category Time Tracker
🌸 Kawaii Time Garden turns time-tracking into something cozy — and now it greets you on
every new tab, too.
It quietly notices which CATEGORY of site you're on — Work, Social, Video, Games, Learning,
Shopping, or your own custom ones — and adds up the minutes. It never catalogs your browsing
history: a site is sorted into a category and the address is thrown away. Only category
totals per day are ever saved, and everything stays on your device.
✨ What's inside
PLAYGROUND (new tab + side panel)
• Every page you navigate to hatches progress toward an egg
• 99 procedurally-drawn critters across four rarity tiers to collect
• Your critters wander a full-page playground every time you open a new tab — chatting,
bumping into each other, reacting — not just in the side panel
• A pity system means a long dry spell always ends in something rare
• Gentle ambient weather drifts through: drizzle, rain, snow, and quiet sparkle
🔥 PLAYGROUND CHAOS (optional, and purely cosmetic)
Pick your own weather forecast for the apocalypse. Four settings, entirely up to you:
• ☀️ Clear — a calm playground (though a flaming dumpster may occasionally roll through
on its own, if you leave that on)
• 💨 Smoldering — a dented dumpster sits in the corner, gently smoking. Nobody acknowledges it.
• 🔥 Dumpster Fire — full flames, ember-red sky, embers drifting up instead of rain, and
critters who have some opinions about it
• ☄️ END TIMES — tripods on the horizon sweeping searchlights, heat-ray flashes, red weed
creeping in from the edges, falling ash
...and through all of it, exactly one critter sits perfectly still with a small cup of
coffee, calmly insisting that this is fine.
Important, and worth saying out loud: the fire is NEVER a comment on how you browse. It is
never triggered by your totals, your categories, or how long you spent anywhere. It is a
decoration you choose. This extension does not have opinions about your browsing.
TIME
• Today view — a pastel donut + bars of where your time went
• History — 7 & 30-day stacked charts, day-by-day
• CSV export (by day or pivoted) and a full JSON backup, any date range
• Manual & Desktop Time — log time Chrome can't see (Adobe Acrobat, paperwork, phone calls)
with a live timer or a fixed-duration entry, editable and deletable afterward
FOCUS & BREATHE
• An optional Pomodoro-style focus timer — entirely separate from the critter loop
• A kawaii cloud with something kind to say about time, rest, and quiet progress — export
any affirmation as a shareable image
CATEGORIES, YOUR WAY
• Create, rename, recolor, and set daily budgets per category, with an offline emoji picker
• Site rules with wildcard subdomains (*.example.com)
• Export your category setup as a portable config file and import it on another computer —
personal data (totals, entries, your critter collection) is never included in that file
• An "Ignore" button for sites you never want to categorize
🌙 Light and dark themes, switchable anytime in Settings.
♿ Respects your system's reduced-motion setting — weather and chaos effects drop their
animation automatically if you've asked your OS to reduce motion.
🔒 Private by design
No browsing history stored. No accounts. No trackers. Zero network requests of any kind —
nothing leaves your device, ever. The weather is generated locally on your own machine;
there is deliberately no location access and no weather service. New-tab replacement is
entirely local — no external page is loaded when a new tab opens.
