Egg Timer
A small project done with care.
What Egg Timer Is
Egg Timer is a simple, focused Android app that helps users boil eggs exactly how they like them. It’s built with Jetpack Compose and designed to be visually clean and distraction-free.
Why I Built It
I wanted a small project that I could use to sharpen fundamentals and design instincts. Egg Timer is intentionally narrow in scope, which forced me to pay attention to the details of state handling, animations, and overall polish.
What I Built
- A fully Compose-based UI with a clear hierarchy and no legacy layouts.
- Timer logic that stays predictable and easy to understand.
- Smooth progress animations that make time visible rather than abstract.
- A focused interaction flow: choose style, start timer, get notified.
- A small but cohesive visual style that feels more like a product than a toy.

Impact
Egg Timer is a good representation of how I approach even small utilities:
- Clear idea of the user’s goal.
- Clean architecture and state management.
- Attention to visual and interaction details.
- Willingness to polish and ship.
