A focus timer for Mac. Pick what matters, give it a session, and see where your time went. Enable JavaScript to try the preview. The native app works offline. Start each session knowing what you want to work on. When you’re done, see the time you gave it. Write the landing page. Review the ads. Ship the fix. Pick one, estimate a few sessions, and start.
