## Description

A chess timer is a clock with two countdowns — one for each player.<br><br>At the start, both players have a set amount of time, for example, 10 minutes each, or one player can be given more time to even out a game.<br><br>When Player 1 makes a move, they tap their side of the timer. Their countdown stops, and Player 2’s countdown starts.<br><br>This back-and-forth continues: only one clock runs at a time, depending on whose turn it is.<br><br>If a player’s time runs out before the game ends, they lose on time, no matter the board position.<br><br>This ensures games don’t last forever and adds strategy: you must manage both your moves and your remaining time.
