Keep Microsoft Teams Available while you're still working

TeamAlive is a lightweight open-source Python utility that prevents Microsoft Teams from switching your status to "Away" while you're actively working away from the keyboard. Perfect for developers reading documentation, watching technical talks, debugging on another device, or doing focused work that doesn't involve constant mouse movement.
How does it actually detect active work versus just leaving the tab open in the background? Curious if it watches process activity or something smarter under the hood.
@kevsertekue1qw Nothing is under the hood. It does gradual cursor movements on screen and that how it keeps status Available.
How does it actually detect that you're still working, just mouse movement or does it also track keyboard activity or specific apps you're focused on?
@vedatgo Currently, Team Alive uses both screen movement and keyboard activity to determine wheather you are active. It keeps your status Available by making cursor movements. I am coming up with more light weight and easy to use way. Stay tuned.
installed it this morning while watching a long tech talk and it kept me green the whole time without me even thinking about it. simple tool, does exactly what it says.
@smailaslancyso Glad you liked it.
