Why I built this: Built as a simple weekend desktop utility to provide a clean, always-visible analog clock experience without window chrome or unnecessary distractions.
Overview
Analog Clock is a small cross-platform desktop widget built with Qt 5. It provides a clean analog clock display in a borderless window designed to sit naturally on the desktop without feeling like a full application.
The project was a focused utility build rather than a broad product: lightweight, visual, and practical. It emphasized desktop packaging, simple presentation, and compatibility across Windows and macOS.
