Pomo
Pomodoro Command Line Interface
🍅 pomo
pomo
is a simple CLI for using the Pomodoro Technique. There are some amazing task management systems but pomo
is more of a task execution or timeboxing system. pomo
helps you track what you did, how long it took you do it, and how much effort you expect it to take.
Background
The Pomodoro Technique is simple and effective:
- Decide on a task you want to accomplish
- Break the task into timed intervals (pomodoros), [approx. 25 min]
- After each pomodoro take a short break [approx. 3 - 5 min]
- Once all pomodoros are completed take a longer break [approx 15 - 20 min]
- Repeat
