The First Linux-compatible Timer App That Repeats Its Alarm Sound!

Of the several timer apps I tried available on Kubuntu, all of them suffered from a fatal problem:

THEY DON'T REPEAT THEIR SOUND!!

You start a timer, go do something else, maybe not even looking at your screen...

And you miss the timer, because it makes one tiny little "ding" sound, and then does nothing.

So, anyway, I set out to reinvent the wheel, because I didn't like the wheels I could find.

Currently a work-in-progress

TODO

• bug fix: times caching doesn't work if you typed the values in
• figure out playing sound loop until user input
• implement config: it should include cached time so app can remember where it was when it closed
• installation script
• re-implement in Rust. There should be lots of opportunities for playing with patterns in a gui-based project

Bonus Features

• timer functionality is all contained in loud_timer.py, so you could theoretically include it in other projects
