ghcr.io/0pandadev/ziitWhat is Ziit?
Ziit is a self-hosted, open-source code time tracker built as a privacy-friendly alternative to WakaTime. It gathers coding metrics from editor extensions and shows them in a simple dashboard. The service supports VS Code, JetBrains, NeoVim, and Zed, with login options including email/password, GitHub OAuth, and Epilogue OAuth. You can migrate existing data from WakaTime or WakAPI, create shareable badges for project readmes, and browse public statistics or a leaderboard on the instance. The stack uses Nuxt with Bun and TimescaleDB, deployed via Docker Compose under the AGPL-3.0 license.
Should you self-host Ziit?
Ziit scores 49/100 on selfhost.directory (how scoring works) and ranks #82 of 166 in Developer Tools. It has 258 GitHub stars.
It shipped 7 stable releases in the past year. The latest, v1.2.2, came out on 23 October 2026. New versions land roughly every 4 weeks.
Setup is moderate: expect some configuration beyond a single command. An official Docker image is available. It is AGPL-3.0-licensed and written mostly in Typescript.
Its closest alternative on selfhost.directory is ActivityWatch (80/100, 19 405 stars). It scores higher overall, so compare the two before you pick. See Ziit vs ActivityWatch side by side.
