How to Use Pomodoro Timer

What is Pomodoro Timer?

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo. It uses a timer to break work into focused intervals (traditionally 25 minutes) separated by short breaks (5 minutes). After four work intervals, a longer break (15-30 minutes) is taken. This technique improves focus, reduces mental fatigue, and increases productivity.
