Focus Time CLI ⏱️

A command-line productivity app for developers who prefer ctrl+c over clicking buttons. Because who needs GUIs when you've got 256 colors of terminal glory?

Features ✨

• Project Management: Create and organize your projects (both real and imaginary)

• Task Tracking: Keep tabs on what you're avoiding

• Focus Timer: Pomodoro technique without the tomato

• Data Persistence: Your procrastination patterns saved in JSON for future analysis

• Audible Alerts: Annoying beeps to match your internal panic

Because nothing says "I'm organized" like a JSON file.

FAQ ❓

Q: Why CLI instead of a GUI?
A: Because real developers compile their productivity.

Q: The beep doesn't work on my system!
A: Congratulations! You've discovered why GUIs exist. Use a terminal that supports sounds (ASCII Bell) like iterm2 on macOS.

Q: Can I use this to time my coffee breaks?
A: Absolutely. We support all forms of productive procrastination.

Known Issues 🐛
