What Cooking Timer Set does, with a checked example
Three pots on the stove, each needing a different number of minutes, and only one phone alarm for the lot: that is the problem this tool exists to remove. It keeps a separate, labeled countdown for every dish or course you add, running them all at the same time, so a glance tells you which timer belongs to which pot. The mistake people make is setting one timer for the dish that finishes first and mentally tracking the rest. Give each dish its own timer and let the tool track them; that is its whole job.
Worked example
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
Pasta: 9 min, Broccoli: 5 min, all started at 6:40 PM
->
Expected output
Two countdowns run at once: Pasta counting down from 9:00 and Broccoli from 5:00. Broccoli reaches zero at 6:45 PM and Pasta at 6:49 PM, 4 minutes later.
Each timer counts down from its own value starting at 6:40 PM, so Broccoli finishes at 6:45 PM and Pasta at 6:49 PM. The gap is the 4-minute difference between the two durations.
