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.
