The Café

Pour a cup and get started. The Café is a calm place to do deep work against the tasks you've already planned.

The coffee cup sprint​

The default sprint is 17 minutes: short enough that starting feels easy, long enough to get properly into the work.

Prefer 25 minutes? 40? Set any length from 1 to 180 minutes, and run 1 to 12 cups in a session.

Start a sprint​

There are two ways in:

  • From the Café. Open it, pick a task from this week, and start the timer for the day.
  • From the task. Start the cup on the task itself, and it takes you straight to the Café.

When a sprint finishes, a cup is logged and the task's focus tally goes up.

Focus template for steps​

If a task has steps, whether you unpacked them or wrote them yourself, apply the focus template in the Café to work through them with a timer.

The floating cup​

A small cup floats in the corner of the workspace and shows the time remaining while you move around the app.

Recent activity​

The Café also shows your recent activity, a mix of your event log and the actions you've completed, so you can see your momentum.
