Tomato Helper

---

Your voices have been heard! A silent timer is now available. If you have any more comments, create an issue in GitHub issues. The link is at the bottom.

This is an unofficial skill of the Pomodoro Technique. It is a timer which allows the user to work for 25 minutes then rest for 5 minutes. Such a pattern boosts productivity and minimizes distraction.

After saying "Alexa, start tomato helper", followed by "start timer" or "start silent timer", there will be a 25-minute count-down. After 25 minutes, the alarm will ring to notify the user that it is time for a break. The user should say "Alexa, next" to stop the alarm and start the break. After the break, the user should say "Alexa, next" to start the next 25-minute of work. After 4 25-minute periods, there will be a longer break of 20 minutes.

When the timer is running, say "Alexa, ask tomato helper for progress" to check your progress.

When you are done, say "Alexa, stop".
