🧠 What is Tabbie?

Tabbie is a DIY desk robot that helps you work, focus, and learn.
It's like a to-do app — but physical, local, and full of personality.

Tabbie lives on your desk, connects to your computer, and helps with small daily things like:

• ✅ Managing your to-do list
• ⏲️ Running Pomodoro timers
• 🔔 Setting reminders (like "drink water every 30 mins")
• 😋 Making faces, moving around, and being silly
• 🗣️ Talking to you (coming soon!)

Think: a mini Twitch streamer sitting on your desk, cheering you on — but also keeping you on track.
