   Excellent for tracking hours

   A nice simple interface and plenty of rich features really make this application essential.

• What do you guys for invoicing outside Upwork?

  I use getharvest.com to track hourly and convert them to invoice. The only thing I don't like is that I have to add the task in the web dashboard rather than entering directly in the desktop app. There is 'note' field, but it won't show up in the invoice detail, so it is useless for me.

• PSA: You don't need fancy stuff to do good work.

  Python's pandas, NumPy, and SciPy libraries offer powerful functionality for data manipulation, while matplotlib, seaborn, and plotly provide versatile tools for creating visualizations. Similarly, in R, you can use dplyr, tidyverse, and data.table for data manipulation, and ggplot2, lattice, and shiny for visualization.

• A project to show off my basic R skills

  We work along side bio-statisticians and data analysts, from my experience in this world I recommend to build some plots/graphs in R based on some information you find appealing.
