JustClock for RustRover – Automatic Work Time Tracking for Rust Developers

JustClock for RustRover

Automatic Work Time Tracking for RustRover.

JustClock tracks the hours you spend on Rust projects in RustRover — systems software, embedded firmware, blockchain code and everything in between — automatically, without breaking your flow.

Time is captured per Cargo workspace and sent in minute-level intervals, so a crash, restart or forgotten stopwatch never means lost hours.

Built for Systems and Performance-Critical Work

  • Tracks time separately for every crate in a multi-crate Cargo workspace
  • Adds no overhead on top of Rust's own compile and check times — JustClock only watches, it never touches the build
  • Useful for systems, embedded and blockchain consultants who bill clients by the hour
  • Doesn't interfere with rust-analyzer, Cargo test runs or long release builds

Also working in C, C++ or Go? The same free plugin covers CLion and GoLand too — see the full JetBrains family overview.
