I Created a 'Take a Break' Notification System in Python and it is Awesome | Short Python Projects

#TakeABreak #Python #InterestingProject

Hey Friends,
In this video, I am going to do a Short and Simple Python Project which is just AMAZING !!
As we all know that during the lockdown period we all spend most of the time in front of our Desktop/Laptop and it is advised that we should not spend a lot of time in front of a screen as it is not good for our eyes...
So, I have just made a simple notification system with Python which will give us notification every 20 minutes to Take a Break. This Lockdown has finally made me something productive ... :)

IDE Used : PyCharm IDE by JetBrains

If you are a beginner you should must use PyCharm ...

There is a problem in my video after 13:28 because I have opened Task Manager at that moment and forgot to close it so after that nothing will happen in the video as I was not logged in to Administrator... You can close the python task by finding it in the "Background processes" ...

If you are using a Mac, you can use the following code which doesnt require third-party packages:

import os

def notify(title, text):
os.system("""
osascript -e 'display notification "{}" with title "{}"'
""".format(text, title))

notify("Title", "Heres an alert")
