## Persistant app state

Stored on file system:

## Logs

To get log output, start the app by passing `--log` to `timr-tui`. See [CLI](./#cli) for details.

Logs will be stored in an `app.log` file at following locations:

```sh
# Linux
~/.local/state/timr-tui/logs/app.log
# macOS
/Users/{user}/Library/Application Support/timr-tui/logs/app.log
# `Windows`
C:/Users/{user}/AppData/Local/timr-tui/logs/app.log
```

Optional: You can use a custom directory by passing it via `--log` arg.
