Focus Clock

A calm focus timer with clear focus and break choices, crisp countdown numerals and one dominant start or pause action. Session progress and wall-clock time have separate roles.

Run it

Build the examples with devenv shell -- lcom-ng-build, then run:

lcom-ng run -- build/examples/pomodoro_clock

Try a complete workflow

Choose Focus or Break, start the countdown, and pause without losing elapsed time. Quick demo mode shortens sessions for a lesson. A completed focus session selects a break and can play a short chime.

Controls

• Space: start, pause or resume. R: reset.
• F / B: focus / break. Tab: switch session.
• D: quick demo. M: sound. F1: help.

Command shortcuts work on macOS; Ctrl shortcuts work on other hosts. Esc closes help first. Cmd/Ctrl+W closes the app.

What it demonstrates

RTC wall time, monotonic PIT elapsed time, timer state transitions, input and optional AC97 feedback.

Wall-clock corrections do not change elapsed focus time. Sound is available only when the audio device starts successfully.
