A Toastmasters-inspired speech timer for online scrum meetings
Qolor Tyme
This is a Toastmasters-inspired speech timer for use during online daily scrum meeting updates.
It is based on PyQt, which is Python API for Qt (pronounced “cute”) cross-platform GUI framework, hence the name Qolor Tyme.
I honestly don’t know why they called it PyQt instead of QtPy, which would have made it “cutie-pie” ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Installation
Use pip:
pip install qolor-tyme
Running
Run it as the package. It accepts an optional timeout interval (default is 90 seconds per Agile guidelines)
python -m qolor_tyme 120
This will configure it for 2 minutes timeout. Then, twenty seconds before the timeout the color will change to yellow, five seconds before the timeout it will change to red,
