Great stuff, do you plan on adding an actual Timer to this instead of just stop watch?

@mykro thanks for trying it out! I don't plan to add a timer, because I think existing non-touchbar apps do that quite well and I'm not sure what the touch bar would add. I may eventually add a pomodoro mode, though. And I'm happy to accept pull requests for other features.

@mykro Wow, It will be so cool if you can add a pomodoro to this.

@alexzirbel Haha you read my mind, this is exactly what I was hoping to use the timer for ;)

@alexzirbel @mykro YES PLEASE! This is quite literally the only reason I have the menu bar showing. This would be a great use of my otherwise useless touch bar.

@mykro @alexzirbel Pomodoro mode will be great! That's how I got to find your timer...

This is a great app, Alex! Thank you for building it. The only thing I'd suggest would be to add a Pomodoro feature or count down. Btw, loved the easter egg on the landing page.
