An application that helps you stay focused on your work by blocking websites on your computer for a duration of time.
- Electron - Used to build cross platform desktop apps
- React - Frontend framework used
- Node.js - Used to build scripts that block websites on your computer
There are many apps out there based on the Pomodoro Technique that allow you set a timer with the goal of maximizing your productivity during that time period.
Unfortunately, these apps do not provide accountability.
Focus Up will make sure you get you stay on task by blocking websites across your entire computer while your timer counts down.
This app has been tested on Mac OS Mojave and Windows 10. While, it should run fine on other versions of these OS's, I have not been able to test them.
You must also have access to an admin account on your computer. Unfortunately this must be the case since we are blocking sites system wide.
You can download the app here and follow installation instructions upon downloading. Note: not compatable with Big Sur
