TimeMaster

💡 Inspiration

Like many developers, I struggled with procrastination and context switching. After exploring productivity techniques, the Pomodoro Technique stood out for its simplicity and effectiveness. I thought: What if I could build a single-page app that not only tracks my Pomodoro sessions but also lets me manage tasks and monitor global time zones for team collaboration?
That question became TimeMaster.

🚀 What It Does

TimeMaster is an all-in-one productivity web app that empowers users to manage their time more effectively through:

• ⏱️ Pomodoro Timer – Uses the 25:5 work-break cycle with Start, Pause, and Reset.
• 🌍 World Clock – Displays live time for New York, Mumbai, London, Tokyo.
• 📝 To-Do List – Add/delete tasks with optional deadlines.
• 🌙 Dark Mode – Toggle for better usability in different lighting.
• 🔁 Tab Navigation – Smooth, reload-free tool switching.

No logins, no distractions—just open and start mastering your time.

🛠️ How We Built It

We used:

• HTML for page structure
• Tailwind CSS for responsive and clean UI
• Vanilla JavaScript for real-time logic and UI behavior

Each feature is modularized with separate files for HTML, CSS, and JS to maintain clarity.
