Guides
The guides are the reading half of Freemato. They cover where the Pomodoro technique came from and the six steps Francesco Cirillo laid out, what the research actually says about whether it works, and how to choose between a 25/5, a 50/10, or a 90-minute interval for the work in front of you. Each one cites its sources by name and year, gives a worked example with real numbers, and ends with a short FAQ. The evidence on Pomodoro is mixed and the guides say so, so read them for a fair picture rather than a sales pitch, then pick a timer and try it.
