I love this. I have ADHD and anxiety/stress issues where having occasional reminders to concentrate on myself and get back in touch with things like this actually really helps.
One quick comment. Aside from speed control, which wouldn't be terrible, being able to resize it or park it in my menu bar (prefer that) would go a long way towards usability.
- ultrasounder 6y agoActually on the same boat. Acute ADHD(undiagnosed),anxiety induced by constant worries about being judged. This will def help. Might even make something using React(an excuse to learn).
- filipeisho 6y agoI am glad you like it! This was a quick demo to see if it was useful for someone. I was hoping to implement the same idea on the menu bar and on the touch bar (for people who find a window annoying). A quick question: Why would you like to resize the window? To make it bigger or smaller?
- geoelectric 6y agoSmaller. I just need to see a hint in my peripheral vision to know I should use it, and only need it to be very obvious while I am using it. If you parked it in the menu bar, I could drop it down like a hanger when I needed it. I probably would not suggest pulsing the menu bar icon itself or at least making that optional. Having something constantly pulsing in the corner of my eye wouldn't be great for flow. Having an occasional reminder to drop down the hanger might be nice though.
- interleave 6y agoI had the exact same experience. I put together a bare-bones menu bar app for macOS. See my comment above for the link! Edit: It does pulse within the menu bar which works for me, please let me know if you find it distracting.
