🍅 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
