Pomodoro Timer
Focus on work, rest efficiently, manage your time scientifically
What is a Pomodoro Timer?
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method created by Francesco Cirillo in the 1980s. The core idea is to divide work into 25-minute focus sessions (a "pomodoro"), with a 5-minute break between each pomodoro, and a 15-30 minute break after every 4 pomodoros. This method helps improve focus, reduce fatigue, and build a sense of work rhythm.
