A minimalistic user friendly Pomodoro timer desktop application. Now go pomodoro your way through stressful assignments and tasks!! :)
So, this is what Wikipedia tells us about the Pomodoro Technique
There are six steps in the original technique of Pomodoro:
1)Decide on the task to be done.
2)Set the pomodoro timer (traditionally to 25 minutes).
3)Work on the task.
4)End work when the timer rings and put a checkmark on a piece of paper.
5)If you have fewer than four checkmarks, take a short break (3–5 minutes), then go to step 2.
6)After four pomodoros, take a longer break (15–30 minutes), reset your checkmark count to zero, then go to step 1.
Most implementations of this application is predominantly in JS, Java or C. I decided to make an application with Python. The GUI part was built with the help of tkinter module in python. This can be run as a desktop application. (Unix/Linux/MacOS)
- Intend to create feature to allow customised Pomodoro intervals for break and work sessions.
- Make GUI more vibrant and smooth
- Favourite Idea is to create a feature that also stores the tasks to be done! 0__0
- Overcome and research more about the diffiulties I faced while developing the application in MacOS due to lot of compatibility issues between tkinter, pygame, mac interface, anaconda. T_T
