Pomodoro Timer application
After reading an article on infoQ, I started using the Pomodoro technique. It works pretty good, but I do still strugle with making my self take a break after the 25 minutes is up.
I recently spent a few days and created a simple timer application to monitor my pomodoros, it is pretty rough around the edges, but good enough for a first release.
I wanted to check out Appcelerator and their Titanium framework, this seemed like a simple enough app to get started with. Titanium allows you to build an app using html, css and javascript then the Titanium framework will 'compile' your code into a desktop application that targets all major operating systems; Windows, Mac and Linux.
In the end I did not really use any of the Titanium Api in my code, just jquery, css and html.
Code is available here: http://github.com/house9/tick-tock-desktop
or download the binaries here:
