Log work hours for employees app

I'm trying to make an app that logs employees work hours. Users should be able to log worked hours only for the day they're working on, free days should be logged in the past and future.

Any hints, suggestions on how should I do this with laravel, or packages ?

Hi, I use similar HR stuff developed inhouse. I think the key for you is to think about time in minutes and work your way up from there.Other then that you are talking about basic models and some calendar library, I use this one https://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxScheduler/

You will find soon enough that this is not such a small thing to build :-)

Yeah, well I have to finish it by Monday, and I still haven't figured out how to do it.

Thought about that, but I have to check if the date is "today" when I log work hours, and free days are only set in future or past. Well that is requirement, at least.
