Question about how the timing works

[ChandlerMcCook]

Hi, I'm making a similar web tracking app and I was wondering how the time tracking in the mainTracker function in tracker.ts keeps synced at running once a second? I see that it calls the tab.incSummaryTime() method but I'm not sure what keeps this code from running say several times a second or too few times a second. Thank you! -chandler

Hi Chandler,

I run time check on websites every second in this service worker. And I use one instance for a repository that saves data to chrome.storage every 5 seconds.

Hi Alex, thank you for the response! I changed the way I was tracking time over to yours and it's a lot cleaner and simpler.
Have a nice day,
