Necdet Şanlı is an independent Windows developer who focuses on unobtrusive utilities that quietly improve daily ergonomics. His catalog is currently built around EyeRest, a minimalist system-tray application that encourages healthier screen habits by prompting users to look away every twenty minutes for twenty seconds at something twenty feet away, the well-known 20-20-20 rule recommended by ophthalmologists. Written in lightweight C#, the program starts with Windows, places a non-intrusive icon near the clock, and uses gentle balloon notifications or optional sound cues to remind office workers, students, and gamers to relax ocular muscles before fatigue sets in. Because it avoids background services and keeps RAM usage below a few megabytes, EyeRest suits corporate laptops and low-spec PCs alike, running alongside heavy IDEs, browsers, or design suites without competing for resources. Typical scenarios include developers who lose track of time while coding, analysts locked into spreadsheets, or distance learners attending back-to-back video lectures; the app can be silenced during presentations and re-enabled afterward with a single click. Although the portfolio is presently narrow, the publisher’s open-source GitHub presence signals an emphasis on transparency, portable settings, and community suggestions for future wellness-oriented tools. Necdet Şanlı’s software is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always install the latest release, and support batch installation alongside other applications.
