Sandman

Sandman is here to help you get your sleep schedule back on track! If you're one of those folks who loves coding late into the night or working on your computer for hours, you probably know how tough it can be to get enough good sleep. It’s like a never-ending cycle of bad rest, right?

Why Sleep Matters

When we mess with our sleep, we really feel it the next day. That's where tools like sleepyti.me come in handy. This website helps you figure out the best time to hit the hay. But there’s also Insomnia, which was inspired by sleepyti.me and gives you reminders when it's bedtime.

Meet Sandman: Your Sleep Buddy

Sandman, which used to be called Insomnia, is an awesome app that works on all major operating systems like macOS, Windows, and Linux. It's designed to ensure you catch those zzz's and wake up refreshed every single day!

The Science Behind Sandman

This app uses a smart algorithm that calculates the best time for you to fall asleep based on when you need to wake up. It takes into account a typical sleep cycle of 90 minutes—this is what experts say is needed for your body to go through all the important phases of sleep.

No More Overworking!

Another cool feature of Sandman is that it will notify you if you've been working on your computer for over 12 hours straight! This way, you can avoid burnout and stay productive.

How It Works

When you first open Sandman, just enter your wake-up time, and it will suggest six different bedtimes for you. After that, feel free to minimize the app; it'll quietly run in the background and give you alerts as bedtime approaches.

A Few Things to Improve

Even though Sandman is super helpful, it could use some extra features like changing the background color or starting automatically when your computer logs in. But hey, it still does its job really well!

Your Nighttime Solution

If you're someone who often forgets about bedtime while working late into the night, having Sandman running in the background might just be what you need for better sleep!
