I built this because every online timer I found was either ugly, bloated with ads, or required signup.</p> <p>VibeTimers is a free, no-signup focus timer with:</p> <ul> <li>Visual themes (anime, sports, nature) instead of plain white backgrounds</li> <li>Built-in ambient sounds (lofi, rain, forest, coffee shop)</li> <li>Daily quests to gamify tasks</li> <li>Preset and custom timers</li> </ul> <p>Built with React + TypeScript. No tracking, no accounts, works on mobile.</p> <p>Would love feedback on the UX or feature ideas. Thanks for checking it out!</p> showdev webdev productivity ui
