12 minutes timer

12 minutes timer. 12 minutes ready.

Space starts or pauses. R resets. F is fullscreen.

Twelve minutes splits into three rounds of four or two rounds of six, which makes it a small circuit. It is also a reasonable first pass on a paragraph you have been avoiding.

When it ends, stop the sentence. You can start another twelve minute timer if the work is still the right work. Press space to start or pause, R to reset, and F for fullscreen. The screen can stay awake after you start, using the wake lock your browser allows. Pick the alarm before you begin. A bell, a chime, a beep, or a short digital pulse all come from the Web Audio API, so there is no sound file to wait on.

This page is the 12 minutes countdown and nothing else is running underneath it. Related lengths are linked under the guide if you want a neighbor, and the timer itself stays above the fold.

No. The end is a timestamp. The display is the gap between that timestamp and now, so a background tab does not lose seconds the way a ticking counter would.
