Takt โ€“ Encrypted Notes & Tasks A calm place to think and plan. Takt brings notes and tasks into one quiet workspace โ€“ end-to-end encrypted, offline-first, and built for people who think in prose, lists, and everything in between. One page for thinking and doing Turn any note into a task. Add a deadline, set a reminder, break it into nested sub-tasks. The Agenda gathers everything due, grouped by day โ€“ today at the top, the rest of the week just below. Write the way you think Rich text with checklists, tables, code blocks, inline drawings, and backlinks. Reach everything through Markdown, slash commands, or the keyboard. No friction between the thought and the page. Sketch it out, right inside the note A built-in Excalidraw canvas lets you draw diagrams, wireframes, or quick sketches โ€“ embedded inline, synced encrypted, no separate tool required.

About

TODO.md

Features
Read full description

TODO.md is a dopamine to-do list for ADHD brains - a wrapper for Markdown files to keep all task with notes you already have. Choose a folder of markdown files. An Obsidian vault works; so does any other notes folder. Each file with checkbox tasks becomes a list. Folder structure stays as it is on disk. Checking a task, dragging to reorder, and adding a line write back to that file. The files remain the source of truth. - Clickable home-screen widget that pages through your task list - A calendar mirror for tasks with a due date - Capture from Siri and get Reminders into the note you choose - Optional dictation when adding a task There is no account, no cloud of ours, and no import step. Files stay where you put them, including iCloud Drive. By default, a file lists when its frontmatter includes the tag `todo`. You can change or turn off that filter in Settings.
