talk-timer
A command line countdown timer for talks.
`talk-timer` is a simple command line countdown timer.
It simply displays a countdown in your terminal in blocks of 10 seconds, until the final 10 seconds, which counts down by seconds.
Then, it flashes red when hitting 0.
I find this useful to set a timer, then magnify (zoom in) on my terminal and have my laptop facing a speaker in a conference to provide them a subtle indicator of how much time they have remaining.
This is essentially a toy, written to explore [typestates](https://yoric.github.io/post/rust-typestate/) in Rust.
