Why This Extension?
Many developers unintentionally code continuously for several hours without:
- drinking water
- taking breaks
- stretching
- relaxing their eyes
- maintaining proper posture
Over long periods, this can negatively affect:
- physical health
- eye health
- posture
- productivity
- mental focus
Focus Timer helps solve this problem with simple visual reminders and time awareness.
Who Should Use This?
This extension is perfect for:
- Web Developers
- Software Engineers
- Students
- Competitive Programmers
- Open Source Contributors
- Freelancers
- Anyone spending long hours coding
Especially useful for developers who enter "deep focus mode" and forget time completely.
