I got tired of switching tabs to change music while studying, so I built a minimal focus timer app

Wait 5 sec.

Hey guys! I’ve been working on a small side project for the past couple of weeks and wanted to share it with yall. I kept getting distracted every time I had to open my browser or phone just to change a song or check my study timer. So, I built NIGHTSTAND, it’s a free, minimal fullscreen Windows app that combines a focus timer, a simple daily checklist, and music controls in one place. A few cool things it does: Fullscreen Countdown Timer: Clean, bold display to keep you on track. Built-in Music Player: Control Spotify or YouTube Music directly from the sidebar without alt-tabbing. Daily Checklist: Keep track of your daily tasks (it auto-resets each day). Custom Color Themes: Includes a super clean Emerald/Midnight dark theme and some soft pastel options (Mint, Lavender, Peach, Sky Blue). Auto-Dimming: If you leave it sitting on your desk for 3 minutes, it automatically dims down so it doesn't burn your screen or distract you. It's completely free and standalone (you don't even need to install anything, just run the .exe). If you give it a try, I’d love to hear what you think or what you'd add to it!
