Focaccia

Closed for focus.

A Chrome extension with an enamel kitchen-timer soul: block the sites that eat your afternoons with one switch, and pace the work with a built-in Pomodoro timer.

Get it running in two minutes

One switch

Keep a blocklist of domains and flip the master switch when it's time to work. Blocked sites land on a friendly hand-painted "Closed for focus" sign instead of their feed — blocking is done with Chrome's declarative rules, so nothing reads your pages.

The tomato dial

A Pomodoro timer with a 60-tick dial, living in the extension's background — it survives closed popups and browser naps. The toolbar badge counts the minutes down so the time is always in the corner of your eye.

A proper finish

When a session ends, a celebration tab swings in — Break time! — alongside a desktop notification, and the next phase starts on its own. Focus, break, repeat.

Install it

Not on the Chrome Web Store (yet) — you load it straight from the source, which also means you can read every line of what runs.

  1. Clone and build:
    git clone https://github.com/pearpages/orchard
    cd orchard
    pnpm install
    pnpm --filter @focaccia/extension build
  2. Open chrome://extensions and enable Developer mode.
  3. Click Load unpacked and pick theplugins/focaccia/extension/dist folder.
