- Quick to log at the table. A session takes a few taps on a phone: times, buy-in, cash-out, game, location.
- The chart tells the story. Cumulative profit and loss as one line, over a range you pick, the way a stock app shows a portfolio.
- Built to move. One codebase runs hosted or on a single home computer. The hosting is a thin layer, so the tool can move to a new machine with little setup.
- Your data is one file. Everything exports to a single file and imports from it, so a flash drive carries it all and the local version needs no internet.
- Private by default. The hosted version sits behind a sign-in, and real results never leave the tool.
How it works: Poker Tracker
For logging live poker sessions from a phone at the table, and seeing at a glance how they're going over time.
Philosophy
The workflow
What it owns
- The session log: start and end, buy-in, cash-out, game, location and whether it was digital.
- The dashboard: the profit/loss chart (1W, 1M, YTD, 1Y, 5Y, MAX) and the last-session card, set against per-session and per-hour averages.
- Export and import of the whole data set.
- The editable lists of games and locations.
What it hands off
- NeptuneVibes.com: where the hosted version lives, and its sign-in.
- Platform Engineer: the local port.
- Art Director: the brand and icon.
- A person: moving the data file by flash drive, and every deploy.
Guardrails
- Never shows real results anywhere public. Screenshots and the devlog use made-up demo sessions.
- Never keeps real data in its code repository.
- Never goes live without the Owner's go-ahead.
