Work Tracker - Enterprise Workforce Management Platform

Work Tracker - Enterprise Workforce Management Platform

Work Tracker is a full-stack enterprise workforce management platform built with Laravel 10.x and Livewire 3.4+. It provides a dual-interface system — a powerful admin portal for HR and management, and a dedicated user-facing dashboard — designed to centralize and automate every aspect of team operations: from real-time work session tracking and leave management to meeting coordination, document workflows, onboarding, and recruitment. The platform combines a modern reactive UI with server-driven reliability, making it suitable for remote and hybrid teams of any scale.

## Key Features

### Real-Time Work Session Tracking

The core of the platform is a live session and time tracking engine. Users start work sessions that are automatically extended every 15 minutes via a Laravel Scheduler background job — sessions continue growing even when the user is offline or has closed their browser. The system enforces daily and weekly tracking limits, performs real-time time-conflict detection across projects, and intelligently suggests alternative time slots when conflicts arise. All session events are logged for a complete audit trail.

### Dual-Panel Architecture

The platform operates two completely separate interfaces:
- Admin Portal — A Bootstrap 5 + Vuexy-themed management console for HR, administrators, and partners. Includes rich data tables with search, sort, and filter capabilities, statistics dashboards, and inline editing.
- User Dashboard — A Tailwind CSS + Alpine.js interface where team members manage their own time tracking sessions, leaves, holiday swaps, quizzes, documents, and meeting requests.

### Project & Time Tracking Management

Projects are created with client details, categories, and technology tags. Users are assigned to projects by admins, and all tracked sessions are scoped per project. The tracking calendar offers both list and day views, with full create/edit/delete support, status management, and multi-user conflict awareness.

### Leave Management

A complete leave application and approval workflow. Users submit leave requests; HR reviews and approves or rejects them from the portal. The system integrates with the activity tracking module — when a user shows low tracking time for a day, HR can trigger a pre-filled leave application directly from the activity modal, saving manual data entry.

### Weekly Holiday & Holiday Swap System

Admins assign fixed weekly holidays (e.g. Friday, Saturday) to each user. Users can then request holiday swaps — working on their usual holiday in exchange for a different day off. Swap requests go through an admin approval workflow, and the system validates all swap logic to prevent conflicts.

### Meeting Calendar & Real-Time Desktop Notifications

Meetings are created with assigned participants, time slots, and optional video call links. Upon creation, every assigned user instantly receives a desktop push notification via Pusher WebSockets (using the Web Notifications API) — even if they are on a different tab or the browser is minimized. In-app toast notifications are shown simultaneously.
