What is the Pomodoro Technique and how does it work?

The Pomodoro Technique is a scientifically-proven time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo. You work for 25 minutes (one pomodoro), then take a 5-minute break. After completing 4 pomodoros, take a longer 15-30 minute break. This technique helps maintain peak focus, prevents mental fatigue, and has been shown to increase productivity by up to 300%.

How do I use this study timer effectively?
