PomoBit

Repo

In the world of digital distractions, sometimes the best solution is a physical one. This project transforms a Micro:Bit v2 into a dedicated Pomodoro timer, bringing the power of focused work sessions right to your desk.

Highlights

  • Hardware: Utilizes the Micro:Bit v2 platform
  • Software: Written in C using open source HAL libraries
  • Functionality: Alternates between 25-minute work sessions and 5-minute breaks

Personal Impact

Since implementing this timer, I’ve noticed that I’m more deliberate with my breaks. Before, I used a phone or mac app to track my breaks and ended up wasting my time on email or social media. This provides a visual and tactile separation between work time and break time.
