Hi,
Loved the project and the interface.
Are you thinking about adding a built in pomodoro timer on the App?
What I mean is that instead of just adding a pomodoro to the task you could also click on something like "start pomodoro" and after the timer finish it would add a pomodoro to the task.

Thanks for your kind words and feedback and apologies for the slow response — the last few weeks have been hectic. I did not include a built-in timer because, although trivial in its basic implementation, it has some UX side effects. Having used several Pomodoro tools, either web-based or native mobile, I've found that the timer is often the greatest pain point: it is rarely an always-on-never-hijacked-top view (even on the phone — much less as a tab in the browser), which causes me to often forget to pause, reset or turn it off. So I built this project as a basic substitute for the pen & paper tracking part. That said, I'd be interested in exploring how this could be implemented as an optional, minimal-friction feature. I will be happy to hear any additional thoughts you may have. (+ will soon add a CONTRIBUTING file with basic guidelines for anyone who may wish to contribute to this repo)
