 1. **Create or Modify Configuration:**
 
-   Flowtimer reads its configuration from a CSV file. The file should define the duration of each phase (in minutes) and the order of phases.

-   Example `config.csv`:
-   ```csv
-   phase,duration
-   work,25
-   short_break,5
-   work,25
-   short_break,5
