This is a task/todo list written in PHP. It uses a JSON text file for the tasks, and the visual side is created with the HTML5 Kickstart framework by Joshua Gatcke.

Recently I removed all Google Ads from this site due to their invasive tracking, as well as Google Analytics. Please, if you found this content useful, consider a small donation using any of the options below:

I'm developing an open source monitoring app called Leaf Node Monitoring, for windows, linux & android. Go check it out!

Consider sponsoring me on Github. It means the world to me if you show your appreciation and you'll help pay the server costs.

You can also sponsor me by getting a Digital Ocean VPS. With this referral link you'll get $200 credit for 60 days. Spend $25 after your credit expires and I'll get $25!

Why use this over something like remember the milk, wunderlist or any

other cloud service?

  • No ads
  • Nobody selling your data
  • Nobody monitoring your activity
  • Data is easy to get out (no vendor lock-in) and to backup.
  • Offline mode? Host it on your local machine with a LAMP/WAMP/MAMP server.
  • Sync? Use a syncing service on the hosts (owncloud and sparkleshare are quite good) and point the program to a json file in that folder.
  • Offline sync? Combine above 2 points, or put the software in a git, svn or other version control system repo.
