How It Works

PomPom follows the Pomodoro Technique:

1. Work for 25 minutes (Focus mode)
2. Take a 5-minute break (Short Break)
3. Repeat steps 1-2 three more times
4. After 4 focus sessions, take a longer 15-minute break (Long Break)
5. Repeat the cycle

Customization

PomPom stores your settings in ~/.pompom/settings.json. You can also replace the default sound file with your own by placing a sound.wav file in ~/.pompom.
