A minimalist task manager designed to focus on today's top priorities.
For iOS 16+
Heavily inspired by UgMonk's Analog physical card productivity system (check it out!).
I started this project to get some practice with SwiftUI and challenge myself to make an app I would want to use daily.
simple by design
This is not a long-term to-do list app, it's a tool to help focus and prioritize today.
freedom by limitation
You are only concerned with today's tasks, and you are limited to ten tasks each day. Today encourages you to re-prioritize your list each day, so you are always focused on the few tasks that really move the needle.
the tool is not the task
This tool evolved from my paper-and-pen system, based on how my brain works. I aimed to replicate the handful of symbols I found myself using (again, riffing on the Analog system) to track where I was at with each given task (see below). It's meant to get out of the way and let you do your to-do's.
