# StayAwake 🖱️

A lightweight Python tool to keep your computer awake by gently moving the mouse in customizable patterns. Perfect for preventing sleep mode, staying online, or avoiding away status on messaging apps!

## 🚀 Features

- **Activity Detection**: Automatically triggers mouse jiggling after 30 seconds of inactivity, ensuring your computer remains awake without constant manual control.

- **Customizable Patterns**: Move the mouse in circular, random, or user-defined patterns.

- **Adjustable Timing**: Set the intervals and movement radius to suit your needs.

- **Simple & Lightweight**: Runs quietly in the background without interrupting your workflow.

- **Cross-Platform**: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

## 📥 Installation

1. **Clone the repository**:

   ```bash

   git clone https://github.com/reachvivek/stayawake.git

   cd stayawake

   ```

2. **Install dependencies**:

  ```bash

  pip install -r requirements.txt

  ```

## 📝 Usage

1. **Run the script**:

   ```bash

   python stay_awake.py

   ```

 2. **Customize Movement Pattern and Intervals: By default, the mouse moves in a small circular pattern every 5 seconds. Adjust the radius and interval in stay_awake.py to change the behavior:**

```bash

radius = 10         # Distance of the jiggle movement

interval = 5        # Time between each movement in seconds

```

 3. **Stop the Script: Press Ctrl + C in the terminal to stop the program.**
