It's a fancy looking timer/stopwatch? Am I missing something?
- jajern 10y agoI think the updating of the page title in the browser tab is the main feature. Also, the favicon updates. So you can be doing something in another tab and see the timer in the timer tab.
- Achshar 10y agoIs it terribly difficult to update the page title if the tab is not in focus? I guess browser pauses js interaction with DOM if the tab is out of focus.
- robbrown451 10y agoI use this to deal with setTimeout() slowing down in unfocused tabs: https://github.com/turuslan/HackTimer https://github.com/turuslan/HackTimer
- ZenoArrow 10y agoThe interesting part is the hack to get the timer working alongside the tab title.
- gremy0 10y agoIt puts the timer in the favicon so you can see it as a tab or bookmark icon.
- superplussed 10y agoAlso, isn't a fancy looking timer worth posting to see if people find it interesting?
