nDmitry··on Show HN: Tgfeed – convert public Telegram channels into RSS or Atom feeds
It depends on how their owners protect them. Switching IPs via proxies and changing user agents are well-known and relatively simple methods—essentially pretending to be different clients.

Right now you can export only hours and money in CSV, though I'm planning to add more detailed reports and exports.

I don't really get you on your own data store—the app syncs with remote CouchDB, do you mean the ability to specify your own remote URL to sync?

No, it's not automatic. You just start a task, work on it and stop it when you're done. How an automatic solution that you use actually works? Does it track usage time for all apps?

JavaScript is all about lack of standard solutions. Take any aspect of the development and you will get a million of possible solutions, whether they are classes implementations, package managers or build tools.

You can use npm modules on the client via Browserify. And there is a dedicated to client-side package manager called Bower.
