Working mate

"What is this?"

Working mate (WM for short) is a friendly JavaFX program who preserve your eyes from the damages caused by monitors.

"Oh nice, but how?"

It relies on a pretty simple exercise : you make a session every 20 minutes of work. During these sessions you have to focus on a far enough object (around 6 m) for 20 seconds.

"What does WM do?"

Basically WM informs you whether it's time to start a session or it's time to end it. You can change timings before starting the exercise.

"How do I get it?"

You can download it as a Windows executable or as a Linux Binary. You can clone this directory as well and build a jar file like this :

git clone 'insert link'
cd 'Working_Mate'
javac 'to compelete'

"How do I use it?"

At startup, you choose the time between two sessions and the duration of a session. A counter will spawn to keep track (I plan to add an option to disable it)

After this, you can work until WM reminds you to start a session with a tune like this
