Keypresscounter is a lightweight tool that tracks how you use your keyboard throughout the day. It counts every individual key press, how many times you hit Q, how many times you hit the spacebar, and so on, then gives you a total tally. Think of it as a personal activity tracker, but for your typing habits instead of your steps. When you launch the program, it creates a small data file for that day's date and starts recording in the background. The next time you open it, it automatically converts the previous day's data into an Excel spreadsheet so you can easily review your typing patterns. The spreadsheet includes a total count column showing your overall key presses for the day. The easiest way to run it is by opening the provided executable file, which requires no installation and runs silently in the background with no command window. If you're cautious about running downloaded executables, the project also includes the raw Python source file you can run instead. For anyone who wants continuous tracking, the README includes straightforward steps to set the program to launch automatically every time your computer starts. This would appeal to anyone curious about their daily computer habits, maybe a writer wondering how much they actually type per day, a gamer tracking their activity, or just someone who likes quantifying their routines. The README is sparse on additional details beyond the core tracking functionality, so don't expect advanced analytics or fancy dashboards. What you get is a simple, no-frills counter that does one thing and stays out of your way.
