A minimalist, distraction-free focus timer that lives directly inside your VS Code status bar. Stay in your flow state, execute your tasks, and keep your workflow lean without ever leaving your editor.
✨ Features
Instant Activation: Start and stop your focus sessions directly from the status bar with a single click.
Real-Time Tracking: Watch your remaining time tick down quietly in the background without intrusive UI pop-ups.
Customizable Durations: Not everyone works on a strict 25-minute loop. Customize your deep-work intervals to fit your specific rhythm.
Zero Bloat: Built to be incredibly lightweight. It only wakes up when you need it and takes up zero unnecessary screen real estate.
🚀 How to Use
Click the ▶ Start Focus button in the bottom-right status bar of your editor.
Get to work.
When the time is up, you'll receive a notification that it's time to take a quick break.
Click the timer again anytime to pause the session early.
Alternatively, you can open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P) and type Toggle Focus Timer.
