Pomodoro Timer is a web-based productivity application that implements the Pomodoro Technique. This time management method uses a timer to break work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. This application helps users manage their work sessions, track productivity, and maintain focus.

• Customizable Timer: Focus sessions (25 minutes) and break sessions
• Task Management: Add descriptions to your Pomodoro sessions
• Session Tracking: Record completed sessions and view productivity statistics
• User Authentication: Secure login and registration system
• User Profiles: Personalized dashboard and settings
• Responsive Design: Works on desktop and mobile devices
• Audio Notifications: Sound alerts when sessions end

• Java 21: Core programming language
• Spring Boot 3.2.3: Application framework
• Spring Security: Authentication and authorization
• Spring Data JPA: Database access and ORM
• Hibernate: Object-relational mapping
• SQLite: Development database
• PostgreSQL: Production database option
• Lombok: Reduces boilerplate code
• Maven: Dependency management and build tool

• Thymeleaf: Server-side Java template engine
• Tailwind CSS: Utility-first CSS framework
• JavaScript: Client-side functionality
• Tone.js: Audio feedback library
