POMODORO Timer
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management system that encourages people to work with the time they have—rather than against it. Using this method, you break your workday into 25-minute chunks separated by five-minute breaks. These intervals are referred to as pomodoros.

CSS checkbox applications
CSS only slider
Use Chart.js to make pie charts for the timer
Countdown timer with control buttons

Too many to show all of my design works
Because too many years of design experience can't be finished in a few words, and my main goal is to become a web developer at this moment, so I just attached a part of my design works here, when I have time I will put more of their details on this website in the future.
