README
Systemd User Timers
usertimers: A command-line tool for creating systemd timers that run under the current user account.
Purpose
usertimers provides an easy way to add, remove, and list user timers—which are systemd timers that are set up by a user, are configured in the user's home directory, and run as the user—on a Linux system. User timers can be used to kick off tasks such as backup and wallpaper changing that are executed while the user is logged in.
Note: System timers, which are defined in /etc/systemd/system, are not supported by this application.
Note: This app doesn't let you edit existing timers yet
