Third Time - Productivity Timer

A minimalist web app implementing the "Third Time" productivity method.

The Method

  • Work for as long or short as you like, until you want or need to break
  • Break for up to one-third of the time you've just worked
  • Save unused break time for later
  • Handle interruptions and big breaks (meals)

Features

  • Flexible work/break timing
  • Break time banking system
  • Interruption handling
  • Big break support for meals
  • Clean, distraction-free interface with flat design
  • Consistent rounded corners throughout the UI
  • Customizable break fractions (1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6)

Usage

  1. Click "Start Working" to begin a work session
  2. Click "Take Break" when you want to stop working
  3. The app calculates your earned break time (work time ÷ 3)
  4. Take your break and click "Resume Work" when ready
  5. Any unused break time is saved for later
