Thanks for checking it out! It can:

block distracting apps and websites when you turn on Flow Mode - you'll need the CLI and browser extension to really take advantage of that
If you connect it to your slack, it can also update your status to let your colleagues know you might slow to respond in Flow Mode
If you get the vscode extension, it can automatically turn on Flow Mode when you start coding.
If you connect it to github or bitbucket, you can get a list of PRs assigned to you. List is visible in vscode, cli, or webapp
If you connect it to your Google Calendar, you can see your events and join Google Meet video chats in vscode, cli, or webapp
With the Google calendar integration you can also call a cli command to automatically launch Google Meet when your event/meeting starts.

I like the idea. But I think there needs to be more "connections". Discord, Teams, Visual Studio, and other apps that might be distracting.

Yeah, I will expand integrations eventually. I am working on this on nights and weekends as a solo dev. It does close Discord when you start flow mode

It definitely has potential. I know for sure it would help me a lot.
