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.
- 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

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