⏳ Kairo: Your Calm Focus Companion

👋 Hey There, Welcome to Kairo!

We all have those days where focusing feels like climbing a mountain. Kairo is here to be your friendly guide and minimal focus timer.

Inspired by the Pomodoro Technique, Kairo is designed to help you dive into deep work without the stress. It’s built to be quiet, intentional, and a little bit fun, turning overwhelming productivity into a calm, focused routine.

✨ What Makes Kairo Special?

Kairo is more than just a countdown clock—it's a complete environment for getting things done.

Feature What it Does for You
Focus & Break Timer Clearly separates your work sprints from your rest periods, making sure you actually take a break.
Ambient Soundscapes Choose from Brown Noise, LoFi, or White Noise to block out distractions and set a peaceful mood.
The Penguin Mascot Your little companion gives you visual feedback on your session state (Focus, Break, Complete).
Easy Customization Quickly adjust your focus time, break time, and the number of sessions to fit your energy level for the day.
Minimalist Design Built with a clean, distraction-free interface so you can focus on the task, not the tool.

🛠 For the Builders: Tech Stack

Kairo is a modern web application built with a clean and maintainable stack:

  • React: For a fast, component-based user interface.
  • TypeScript: To keep the code robust and error-free.
  • Tailwind CSS: For rapid, utility-first styling and a beautiful, responsive design.

🚀 Getting Started (Run It Locally)

Want to run Kairo on your own machine? It's simple!

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/kharalnirmal/Kairo.git
    cd Kairo
  2. Install dependencies:

    pnpm install
    # or npm install / yarn install
  3. Start the development server:

    pnpm dev
    # or npm run dev / yarn dev

Kairo will now be running on http://localhost:5173 (or a similar port).
