Description

At the moment, we've implemented a tracker that only tracks Active window titles and the application name. We can beyond this and add more types of data to the system.

One such detail would be adding a tracker for mouse and keyboard events. We don't want to track what the user has typed/clicked. We just want to track whether the user is active or not. (Depending on the keyboard/mouse events)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research how to capture global mouse and keyboard events on different operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux) using Node.js libraries like 'iohook' or 'node global key listener'. Look for existing implementations in the repository to follow the same pattern.
