A native Mac focus timer that turns every completed session into a persistent desktop tree.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

WELTEN runs from the macOS menu bar: users choose a duration and project, then a completed session adds a tree to a persistent desktop forest. Its examples show growth from sprout to mature oak across 50 sessions and a 150-session forest, with seven named tree families available. Sessions, projects, and worlds are stated to remain on the Mac without an account, sync, upload, app blocking, or knowledge of which app is in front.
