Pomodoro timer
Classic Pomodoro: twenty-five minutes of focus, five minutes of break, a longer rest after four blocks. Change the lengths, turn the sound off, and leave the timer running in the background — the remaining time shows in the tab title.

How it works
Pomodoro in five sentences
- Pick one thing to work on — not three.
- Start twenty-five minutes and touch nothing else until the bell. If something lands, write it down and go back.
- When it rings, stand up and do nothing useful for five minutes. The break is part of the method, not a reward.
- After four blocks take a longer break, fifteen to thirty minutes.
- If a block gets interrupted, it does not count. That is not a punishment — it is a measure of how much uninterrupted time you actually get.
