How it works
Watch this quickstart video to see how Developer Journal works.
Why tracking projects is broken for developers
❌ Current Solutions
- •Generic tools like Notion aren't built for code-first workflows
- •Project management tools are too complex and business-focused
- •Manual documentation is time-consuming and often forgotten
✅ Developer Journal Solution
- •Automatic tracking through Git commits - just add [dj] tag
- •Developer-first interface that feels natural to use
- •AI-powered recaps to visualize your project's evolution
Developer Journal is built by developers, for developers. We understand your workflow because we live it every day. No more context switching or complicated setups - just simple, effective project tracking. We belive that all developers should be able to track their projects easily. Not only big companies.
