A Flutter-based Pomodoro timer app designed for productivity, primarily targeting macOS and web platforms. Built with a minimalist approach, it focuses on core functionality over extensive responsiveness across devices.
Pomo is a lightweight tool for managing work and study sessions using the Pomodoro Technique. It features a clean interface and basic timer controls, originally prototyped in Figma and implemented in Flutter for cross-platform use.
The Pomodoro Technique, created by Francesco Cirillo, divides work into 25-minute focused intervals ("Pomodoros") with 5-minute breaks, and a longer break after four cycles. It enhances focus by minimizing distractions, boosts productivity through small, achievable goals, and improves time management with regular resets. Pomo brings this method to macOS and web for efficient task handling.
- Platforms: macOS (primary), Web (functional but not fully responsive)
- Original Design: Figma Community File
