Pomodoro timer guides
Install, safety, first-run, and migration notes for a local This guide setup. Start with the OS that matches your machine, then keep one update door. These pages support the same offline playback habit without Softonic mirrors.
Windows readers should prefer the x64 noyt setup on GitHub Releases. macOS readers can use Homebrew cask install guide or a Qt dmg. Linux readers can start with Snap and fall back to debs or AppImage on the same tag. winget remains an alternate Windows channel when policy already trusts that index.
Each guide ends with related doors so a teammate can find releases, download-safe habits, and the first-hour checklist without inventing a second binary. Media licences stay separate from the MIT program licence. Upstream bugs belong on Splode/guide issues, while guide corrections belong on the contact page.
After you finish an OS install page, prove one short scene before you build playlists. Document whether noyt, winget, brew, Snap, deb, or AppImage owns the machine. That note prevents duplicate installs after a reimage and keeps classroom images honest.

Cluster pages: releases, GitHub, download safe, for this computer.
Editorial work here means checking GitHub Releases asset names, package registries when they exist, and licence files on the review date. Commands that were not run on a real machine stay marked unverified in research notes.
Readers should leave with one honest install door, not a pile of mirrored setups. When a registry has no package, the guide says so instead of inventing an id.
Use the install section first when you only need a file or command for your OS. Use comparisons when you already own a phone app or a quartz unit and want an honest split. Use switch guides when you are leaving browser tabs behind. Use howto guides for first run, focus round, troubleshooting, and updates.
Each guide opens with a short answer, then steps, then a checklist for shared desks. Keep one Releases bookmark. Prefer exact filenames over review portals. When a package manager has no id, the guide says so plainly.
- Install guides cover Windows, macOS, Linux deb, and AppImage.
- Safety and troubleshooting cover blocked launches and silent output.
- Cluster pages cover releases, GitHub, download-safe habits, and machine choice.
