CLUSTER TERMINAL-TIMER-COMMAND · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2021-12-07

Terminal and desktop countdown timers

This cluster contains minimal timer applications for terminals, desktops, and a few mobile platforms, covering countdowns, pomodoros, stopwatches, and date-based tracking. Dated entries appear sporadically from 2018 to 2026, with a denser set of dates in late 2025 and early 2026. Traction leadership is led by FloatingCountdown with 4 stars, followed by CalendarCountdown and kurura-isaha with 3 stars each.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
