## What is Backwards Clock?

Inspired from a book "Grace Hopper: Queen of Computer Code".
In the book, there is a quote from Grace

"""
Humans are allergic to change.
They love to say, 'We've always done it this way.' I try to fight that.
That's why I have a clock on my wall that runs counter-clockwise.
"""

To memory Grace, I am using SwiftUI to build a backwards clock.
SwiftUI is a beautiful framework to build iOS Apps. Not only iOS Apps, this framework already included macOS, watchOS UI components.
If one day I become a person who is allergic to change, this app can remind me the spirit from Grace.
