A System Tray app that provides a reminder to follow the 20/20/20 rule.
It's recommended to abide by the 20/20/20 rule when looking at a screen | or in other words:
Every 20 minutes take a break for 20 seconds to look at something 20 feet away. More info here.
When using similar apps I found I would frequently not notice the notification or sometimes just ignore it altogether. In an attempt to strike a balance between being annoying enough to grab the users attention and not blocking any functionality, when it's time to look away and let your eyes rest 20³ will fade the users screen in and out for the entire duration.
> git clone https://github.com/Tbruno25/twenty_cubed
# cd into the twenty_cubed directory
> pip install -r requirements.txtDouble click 20³.pyw or execute
> python 20³.pywThe app should now be launched in your System Tray.
Left clicking the app icon will toggle it's current state:
Green is active
Red is paused
While active every 20 minutes the screen will alternate fading as a reminder to look away.
