pomo is a simple CLI implementation of the Pomodoro Technique. It was written for use on a Linux desktop but can easily be ported over to other platforms.
The Pomodoro Technique is simple and effective time management technique:
- Decide on a task you want to accomplish
- Break the task into timed intervals (pomodoros), [approx. 25 min]
- After each pomodoro take a short break [approx. 3 - 5 min]
- Once all pomodoros are completed take a longer break [approx 15 - 20 min]
- Repeat

go get github.com/kevinschoon/pomo
cd $GOPATH/github.com/kevinschoon/pomo
make
./bin/pomo
# Initialize the SQLite database and state directory
pomo init
# Start a new task
# Add a tag "dev", allocate 2 pomodoros for 1 minute each
pomo start -t dev -p 2 -d 1m "Write Some Codes"
...
# List previous tasks
# pomo list
...
pomo depends on the libnotify client package, a notification server (installed with most Linux desktop environments), and SQLite.
