    Not much to say, it's a {https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior}(command line utility for task management) with a lot of features. I like it because I tend to spend more time on desktop than mobile, although there are a {https://github.com/bgregos/foreground}(couple) of {https://f-droid.org/es/packages/kvj.taskw/}(apps) for Android users. It allows synchronization between devices by setting up your own {https://taskwarrior.org/docs/taskserver/setup/}(taskserver) or using {https://inthe.am/}(third party tools).

    Web-based tools and gui apps are just too high friction for my work flow, so I prefer simple command line tools. https://taskwarrior.org/ is my current favorite.

    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 7 May 2023
    I’ll volunteer Taskwarrior (https://taskwarrior.org), since I don’t see it from anyone else just yet. It’s a CLI oriented task management system which (once you learn it) can be very quick and easy to use. It’s not perfect but they’ve done a better job that I would have for sure, and have really thought about reducing friction.

  • Have a different sort order depending on context
    1 project | /r/taskwarrior | 30 Jul 2022
    I use two different contexts. One is default, which only shows me the main tasks I want to be working on. In general, this is no more than 10 tasks and excludes things with priority:L or anything +BLOCKED. I have another context, backlog, which shows pretty much everything that default doesn't. Blocked, delayed, de-prioritized tasks. I also use a taskwarrior-tui which lets me switch contexts with a hotkey.
  • Private Productivity / Task managers?
    5 projects | /r/privacy | 18 Jul 2022
    I've had great success with using TaskWarrior to manage my tasks. Open-source and terminal-based, though I do use a terminal UI for it, which makes it even more user-friendly.
  • I spent 3:27hrs (yes I timed myself) looking for the perfect best to-do list and tried some. They all sucked, since when simplicity became a sin?
    2 projects | /r/MacOS | 27 Jun 2022
    If you need a simplistic application to strictly manage tasks that you need to complete, I would recommend TaskWarrior, as well as taskwarrior-tui. Since TaskWarrior is a terminal-based application, taskwarrior-tui provides a nice terminal interface to interact with it.

    I use `taskwarrior` every day and greatly enjoy it. There's a number of other terminal TODO management solutions that I've dabbled with but `taskwarrior` is just so feature rich and can be adapted to suit your workflow quite easily.

    There's also `timewarrior`, which complements `taskwarrior` pretty well.

    I'm not affiliated with the `taskwarrior` project, but I wanted to say that if you like the project and are interested in contributing, one way you can do so is by donating to their GitHub sponsors: https://github.com/sponsors/GothenburgBitFactory. For something that I use every day, I don't mind throwing a few bucks their way, and I figured others might feel similarly so I thought I'd share :)

    PS - If you are interested in `taskwarrior`, you may also like `taskwarrior-tui`: https://github.com/kdheepak/taskwarrior-tui. It is a terminal user interface for `taskwarrior` that I built in my spare time.

  • How do you integrate Taskwarrior into your desktop?
    5 projects | /r/taskwarrior | 25 Jun 2021
    I use Material-Shell and just have one of my workspaces dedicated to tasks/notes. So I have Joplin open for note taking, and (like you) a shell where I just have my task list open. I have been experimenting with taskwarrior-tui also.

What are some alternatives?
