# Pomodoro Clock

**Tier:** 1-Beginner

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. The technique uses a timer to break down work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks - 5 minutes.

## User Stories

-   [ ] User can _start_ / _pause_, _stop_ and _reset_ the timers

## Bonus features
