The Todo Timer

Overview

The Todo Timer is a pomodoro timer with a todo list and user auth using passport and JWTs. It was created to increase productivity by identifying work that needs to get done with a todo list, then using the pomodoro technique to accomplish it.

It was built using MongoDB, Express.js, React, Redux, and Node.js.
