PomodoroBar

Minimal macOS menu bar Pomodoro timer built with SwiftUI.

Requirements

• macOS 13+ (uses MenuBarExtra)
• Xcode 15+ or Swift toolchain that supports SwiftUI app targets

Run

Open the package in Xcode and run the app target, or use:

swift run

Release DMG

./scripts/release.sh

If xcodebuild reports a missing destination, ensure Xcode is installed and run:

./scripts/release.sh

The DMG is created at dist/PomodoroBar.dmg.

For notifications, drag PomodoroBar.app to /Applications and launch it from there.

Notes

• Menu bar icon is templated for light/dark menu bar rendering.
• Description text is adapted from Wikipedia with attribution.
• Start-at-login toggle requires running as a bundled app.
• Sound notifications can be enabled or disabled in the menu.
• Use the in-app Notifications section to request permission and test alerts.
• Running via swift run (or the raw debug executable) disables notifications and start-at-login.
