โ๏ธ How It Works
Click Start to begin a Pomodoro session.
After 25 minutes of work (default), a 5-minute short break starts.
Every 4 work sessions, a long 20-minute break occurs.
After each work session, a green checkmark โ is added as progress.
Click Reset to stop and restart the timer.
๐ Customization
To change the work/break durations, modify these values in main.py:
WORK_MIN = 25 # Work duration in minutes SHORT_BREAK_MIN = 5 # Short break duration LONG_BREAK_MIN = 20 # Long break duration
