The pure-Kotlin half of the stopwatch, with no Android on it anywhere. `StopwatchFormat` splits a duration into a major field it asks `ClockFormat` for and two truncated hundredths, so the fraction can be drawn smaller than the seconds beside it. `StopwatchReadings` turns a stored run plus the monotonic clock into the one reading the tab, the pill and the notification all draw — a run whose anchor belongs to a previous boot reads paused at what it banked, never negative and never below the last lap's total. `LapStats` marks the fastest and the slowest, but only once three laps exist, with ties going to the earlier lap and an all-equal set marking neither. `StopwatchNotification` says what the shade shows without knowing what a `Notification` is.
Clockula
A modern Material 3 Expressive clock app for Android.
Alarms, timers, stopwatch and world clock. Open standards, no account required.
Clockula is the clock sibling to Calendula
(calendar) and Agendula (tasks). The
name follows theirs: clock, given Calendula's -ula ending. A Calendula flower
head is botanically a cluster of many small florets, so the three apps are
florets of one bloom — and they share one, floret-kit.
🚧 Early development. The spec is locked; the app is being built. See
docs/ROADMAP.mdfor where it actually is.
The honest difference from its siblings
Calendula is a pure front-end over Android's CalendarContract. Agendula speaks
the dmfs TaskContract. Both put a good interface on a standard someone else
already maintains.
There is no open provider behind a clock. Alarms, timers and laps are
Clockula's own data, so Clockula is the first app in the family to own its
storage — by design, not as a fallback. What that commitment is replaced with is
the first section of docs/PLAN.md, and it comes down to three
things:
- Clockula speaks Android's standard alarm contract. It implements
android.provider.AlarmClockin full, so your assistant and your automation apps can set alarms and timers in it exactly as they would in any stock clock, and the system status bar and lock screen show its next alarm. - World clocks are IANA time zones, not a bespoke city list that goes stale.
- Your data exports to a documented, versioned JSON file whenever you want it, because data you can't take with you isn't really yours.
Alarms that actually ring
An alarm app is only worth having if you can trust it, so Clockula treats that as the feature rather than the plumbing. Alarms are scheduled as real alarm clocks — doze-exempt, visible to the system — and re-resolved against your current time zone whenever anything moves underneath them, so DST and travel don't silently shift them.
When something on your device would stop an alarm ringing, Clockula tells you which setting it is and takes you there, instead of failing quietly at 7am.
Documentation
Start with docs/: PLAN.md is the spec and the
reasoning, ROADMAP.md is the status,
ARCHITECTURE.md is how the code is put together, and
RELEASING.md is the release runbook.
Building
git clone --recurse-submodules https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/clockula.git
cd clockula
./gradlew assembleDebug
floret-kit is a submodule built from source as a Gradle composite build, so
--recurse-submodules is not optional. The included build needs to find the
Android SDK on its own: either export ANDROID_HOME, or drop a sdk.dir=… line
in a (gitignored) floret-kit/local.properties.
