Congratulation on your new Raycast extension! :rocket:

We will review it shortly. Once the PR is approved and merged, the extension will be available on the Store.

Just a quick question before reviewing it @ungarmichael, it looks like it should work for only one timer, but the code actually adds multiple files every time you start a new timer. What about storing it in localStorage instead and then allowing multiple timers (with a list view)

I'd like to help with the rewrite of the extension if needed 🙂

Hey there :wave:

My new update to the Timers extension (#2858) adds some similar stopwatch functionality, which also includes the ability to have multiple concurrent stopwatches and a view to check up on all of them:

What do you think about merging the functionality of this extension into Timers? Maybe @pernielsentikaer can give his thoughts on this as well.

I think that could make sense if @ungarmichael also thinks it could be a good idea, then he would be contributor to the timers extension, what do you think @ungarmichael

What do you mean with being contributor to the timers extension? The implementation for a stopwatch in timers already exists, doesnt it?

[ThatNerdSquared]

Yes, I have already added a stopwatch implementation to timers. If you would like, you can contribute any functionality you consider missing from timers, and I could add you to the contributors list in the extension. You can also choose not to, and we could just merge my extension as-is - no pressure.
