The Pomodoro Technique, as many people are aware, is a time management strategy that allows people to work within a time constraint to optimize productivity. I intended to use this technique, but when I tried it on my phone, I felt unproductive. This is due to the fact that when we are on our phones and receive a notification, email, or message, we are enticed to check them. Because I was becoming distracted, I decided to use programming to develop a Pomodoro Timer app. Once you press start, the Timer will begin the countdown from 25 minutes which is the "work" period. After the work section has been completed there will be a "break" period for 5 mins. Consequently, after the duration of the break, the work period will begin again. This process will repeat 4 times or for four Pomodoro's before you get a longer 20-minute break. Also, at the bottom of my app, there will be checkmarks that represent how many Pomodoro's you have completed. I built this Pomodoro Timer using Python and Tkinter(GUI). Tkinter is Python's standard GUI library. Python, when coupled with Tkinter, provides a quick and straightforward approach to develop graphical user interface (GUI) applications.
The Youtube video I posted has 3 work/break reps and a 30 second longer break, due to time restraint
