Finally!
Tap has gained a practical use case!

One of the things this project has been lacking for a while now is something to show that it can actually do something. Not just a little flashy demo, but, at the very least, some action that can help in the real world.

And it now has this!

The video above has a little demonstration of a basic but effective "Debate Club Timer".
In essence, it turns Tap into a little clock that counts down the time you have remaining for your talk, but it does so utilizing most of its outputs.

The OLED screen gives the exact time remaining, while the ring of LEDs gives a quick glance at how long is left. The ring's colour also signals the first and last minute of the debate, which gives a bit more warning when approaching the very end, and the speaker accompanies these changes using warning beeps that signal the last 30 seconds.

And if you go over the time?
It flashes a bright red to show that you probably, maybe, should stop talking now.

Expect more little demonstrations in the future. Tap is finally ready to step out of the "probably" and into "Yesss, it finally works!"
