+# Pomodoro.sh
+
+Simple, POSIX-compliant shell script for pomodoro technique.
+
+## Setup
+
+Every study session is 25 minutes with 5 minutes break and 20 minutes long break after every 4 study sessions by default. You can easily change any value in the shell script. Don't forget to change the ringtone to your favourite one. That's it! You're ready to go.
+
+## Starting
+
+Just run pomodoro.sh:
+
+```bash
+./pomodoro.sh
+```
+
+If you've killed pomodoro.sh after, let's say, 2 sessions, you can easily restore the number of sessions you've already done. Just specify the number of sessions as the first argument:
+```bash
+./pomodoro.sh 2
+```
