PUCOTI

A Purposeful Countdown Timer

Stay on task with PUCOTI, a countdown timer built for simplicity and purpose.

Features:

• Countdown: Counts down to zero (and can go below zero).
• Bell Alert: Rings a bell when it hits zero.
• Persistent Reminder: Rings every 20 seconds until you acknowledge it. Don't forget to do the thing.
• Set Intentions: Write down what you intend to do during the countdown.
• History: Keeps a log of your intentions and how long you spent on each.
• Large Font: Uses the biggest font it can for visibility.
• Sway Integration: Automatically moves to the corner of your screen if you use Sway WM.
• Total Time: Shows the total time you've spent on the timer.
• Configurable: Change the bell sound, waste time changing colors, and more.
• Basic Controls: Add or subtract time, reset the timer, but not more.
• No Pause: No pause button. Time always moves forward.

PUCOTI is straightforward and gets the job done. Give it a try.

Usage

Telemetry

I collect minimal anonymous usage statistics to prioritise per-platform development. On startup, PUCOTI sends its version and basic OS/desktop metadata. It also reports when you use some specific features (e.g. joining a room). You can see what is sent in telemetry.py and desactivate it by passing --no-telemetry or setting telemetry = false in the config file.

It also lets me know how many people use PUCOTI, and this motivates me a lot to keep making it better!
