Problem description

Hello! Thanks for creating this super useful software :)

I was wondering if it's possible to change these times here?

I'd like to have additional options like:

  • 5 minutes
  • 10 minutes
  • 15 minutes

I did take a look at other requests and didn't find anything. I've checked README and also config.json but either the option to modify is there and I'm blind :) or it wasn't implemented.

Possible solution

I'd like to have additional options like:

  • 5 minutes
  • 10 minutes
  • 15 minutes

Alternative solutions

If adding additional options is not feasible then there could be entries in config.json to modify the default values.

Research direction
To implement this feature, first locate the pause break settings UI component in the source code (likely in an Electron window). The time options might be hardcoded in a dropdown or stored in configuration. Search for existing time constants or arrays. Add '5 minutes', '10 minutes', '15 minutes' to the list. If config.json is used, update the default configuration schema to include these. Ensure backward compatibility.
