DeskForge - Tomato Clock and Advanced

Time you can see without opening anything

A timer in a browser tab is a timer you forget. This pack puts a focus Pomodoro and a full set of time tools directly onto your wallpaper, where they sit in plain sight, keep running while you work, and never pull the cursor out of whatever you're typing in.

A Pomodoro you can read from across the room

• The tomato gets eaten. A whole tomato at the start of a focus block, down to a core by the end — six stages of hand-drawn art that tell you how much of the session is left before you've read a single number.

• One tomato per round. Finished rounds are tallied as small tomatoes, six to a row, wrapping to the next row when it fills — the day's work at a glance.

• Work is red, rest is blue. The status text changes colour between the two, and during a break the finished tomatoes pick up a yellow rim — you can tell which mode you're in from across the room.

• Your durations, not ours. Focus, short break and long break are each adjustable from 1 to 120 minutes, with 1 to 12 focus rounds before a long break. Defaults are 25 / 5 / 15 and four rounds if you'd rather not think about it.

• Two sounds, not one. Pick a different alert for entering work and entering rest, from a library of 20. Or let it roll straight into the next block silently.

• Sized to your desk. 120 to 480 px, with the countdown digits, the upper and lower zones, and the tomato itself each scalable on their own. Opacity from 30% to fully solid.

Five more time tools in the same pack

• Timer — counts up, so you find out what a task actually costs you instead of guessing.

• Countdown — set a target and watch it fall. Laundry, a call, something on the stove.

• Stopwatch — start, lap, stop.

• Alarm — once, every day, or weekdays only (Monday to Friday). It lives on the desktop, so you can see the next alarm without unlocking a phone.

• World clock — 20 zones covering UTC, Taipei, Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Singapore, Bangkok, Kolkata, Dubai, Moscow, Paris, London, New York, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Sydney, Auckland, Honolulu and São Paulo. Seconds optional. Put three on the desktop and stop doing timezone arithmetic in your head.

• It upgrades your sticky notes too — in the base app each note reminder fires once. With this pack, any reminder can repeat daily, or on weekdays only.

It stays out of your way

• Every tool is its own widget. Drag it anywhere, put several on the desktop at once, or keep just the one.

• They sit at the very back of the desktop — no taskbar entry, no Alt-Tab clutter, and clicking one never steals focus from what you're typing in.

• They keep running while other windows cover them, and they're there again the moment you clear the desk.

Want the desktop to look good too

• Dial Packs — 28 mechanical watch faces across Dress, Pilot, Diver, Sport and Vintage pocket watches, with a smooth sweeping second hand and a carousel that rotates your favourites on a schedule.

• Watch Strap Pack — 16 straps in leather, steel, rubber and NATO nylon, laid flat under the dial or wrapped around it in 3D.

What you need
