Hey selfhosted community,
Around a year ago I started a new project called Tasks.md, which is a self-hosted task management system that aims to be simple and easy to install. I also made this reddit post to share with the community.
Yesterday I released the version 2.0.0 so I thought it would be a good time to share it with the community again. The new version includes some previously requested features, some features that no one requested but I thought would be nice to have, simplifies the initial setup, improves documentations and some other things.
You can find it here: https://github.com/BaldissaraMatheus/Tasks.md.
Main features:
- Create cards, lanes and tags in a modern and responsive interface;
- Write cards as Markdown files;
- Easy to install with a single Docker image;
- Light and dark themes synced with operating system settings;
- Heavily customizable with 3 default color themes (Adwaita, Nord and Catppuccin);
- Support for subpath based reverse-proxy with an environment variable for base path;
- Can be installed as PWA (though it requires setting up https).
This is great! Why not turn it into a Desktop app via Electron or a similar solution? Since it stores everything as plain text files a desktop app would be great because people could just download it and use it standalone (easier than docker + browser) and sync files between machines using some cloud service or Synching.
This is a feature for me that makes me inclined to try it. I really don’t like Electron.
