A minimal local Pomodoro timer for the terminal (no accounts, no cloud) (lemmy.world)

I wanted a simple Pomodoro timer that works locally, offline, and doesn’t require an account or sync anything to the cloud. Most Pomodoro apps I tried were SaaS‑based or came with way more features than I needed... So I built MPomidoro.

It runs entirely in the terminal and keeps everything on your machine.

What it does:

runs locally, no cloud, no telemetry
no accounts, no sync
configurable work/break intervals and cycle count
guides you through each Pomodoro stage
generates a small session report at the end

works on Windows and Linux (Python, no external deps)

It’s not a “self‑hosted service”, but it is a local‑first alternative to Pomodoro apps that store data online. Sharing it here in case anyone prefers lightweight, offline tools.

Yeah, it’s a pretty simple time‑management method — short focused work blocks with breaks in between. I just wanted a minimal version of it that works in the terminal.
