Create an entry

Worklog entries are the foundation of your personal productivity and progress tracking inside Accomplish.

Each entry captures a single piece of work or activity you've done — whether it's coding, reviewing, debugging, writing, researching, or planning. They can be created in real time, at the end of the day, or retroactively as a way to document your impact.

Entries can include:

  • A short or detailed description (Markdown supported)
  • Tags for context (e.g. bugfix, infra, meeting)
  • Project association
  • Time and date (automatically assigned, but editable in the app)

Entries become searchable, referenceable, and useful for team updates, retros, and resume writing.

🖥️ Create via the Web App​

Navigate to your Worklog dashboard and click + New Entry to open the editor.

You can enter:

  • A description of what you worked on

📓 Why Log Work?​

  • Remember what you did and when
  • Reflect on your week, month, or project
  • Power resume generation or project recaps
  • Tag work for future search and storytelling
  • Keep a lightweight daily journal

Logging just 1–3 entries per day can give you superpowers when it comes to job interviews, performance reviews, or personal growth.

Start small. Stay consistent.
