In 2023, more than 500k developers spent a combined 51 million hours programming, tracked with [WakaTime plugins](/content/plugins/index.html).  
The average person spent 48 minutes per day programming.

Each year we release a [personalized coding report](/content/a-look-back-at-2023/index.html) showing your accomplishments over the last year.  
We also include average trends for all WakaTime devs showing the most used languages, IDEs, and operating systems.  
These trends come from aggregating the WakaTime personal dashboard metrics when a developer installs one of our [IDE plugins](/content/plugins/index.html).  
But first, a quick list of new features released in 2023.
