+This demo uses GEX to drive NeoPixels. It is a Python implementation
+of the [Pomodoro timer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).
+
+The strip shows:
+- a shortening red strip during the work phase
+- dim orange/red when the user should start working
+- dim green when the break can be started
+- and a shortening green strip during the break phase
+
+The end-of-phase wait states are left by pushing a button, entering the following
+break or work period.
