vdirsyncer VS todo.txt-cli

Have a look at vdirsyncer. Sync calendars to a local directory and then use eMacs to read them.

I found vdirsyncer which seems like a nice and promising idea similar to maildir which I already use with notmuch, even though it seems too opinionated and the support for Google calender seems largely untested/unsupported.

For getting ics files, have you seen vdirsyncer ?

On another topic, I maintain a tool to synchronise calendars (e.g.: events and todos) using CalDav (a standard HTTP-based protocol which a lot of calendar servers implement). I'm actually rewriting this in Rust full-time these days.

I used https://github.com/pimutils/vdirsyncer and made a cronjob for it on my host. The configuration is pretty simple - but always do a backup before testing! :)

Whatever CalDAV type calendar you go with (NextCloud and Radicale have been suggested here, Sabre/DAV, DAViCal and Baikal are other options), in case you need to sync calendars to it, you might want to look at vdirsyncer. This way, everyone can keep using his favorite app and you can still gather everything in once central place and have it all synced. Or you get everyone to set up DAVx5.

I have recently started organizing my calendars using `vdirsyncer` [vdirsyncer](https://github.com/pimutils/vdirsyncer)

Hm. Generally for folks who are familiar with the command line I suggest using vdirsyncer, a nifty little python program that lets you keep remote calendars in sync.

FSNotes for macOS and iOS is one I used for a little while.

todo.txt is another thing that comes to mind.

http://todotxt.org/

And of course pretty much all of *nix.

Since at least 2012 I've also been using a text file format from http://todotxt.org/ and more recently I wrote a program that takes a crontab-like list to pre-generate entries on a daily, by-day-name (every Sunday for example), and I also pull in a list of holidays from gov.uk, so they are also populated.

It's a web app implementing the todo.txt format (see http://todotxt.org/). It's an exercise to learn frontend currently, I doubt I could successfully monetize it. Would appreciate any feedback!

That format is really similar to todo.txt format, worth taking a look at http://todotxt.org/ (which in turn has application links).

For todo and schedule I use todo.txt (http://todotxt.org/) a plain file managed by scripts which build agenda and plumber to keep track of unique keys.

The ToDo.Txt format makes it easy to use across devices/software, but this is really limited to ToDos.

Here’s the todo.sh features for those interested. There are several addons for it as well: https://github.com/todotxt/todo.txt-cli

Good idea, something similar to todotxt.org. But no 1) iPhone app 2) you need to sigh up and keep your notes at developers servers 3) subscriptions?! come on!

There are a couple different routes you can go down. If your goal is to learn CLI stuff, it's hard to beat using shell-scripting for a simple app like a todo manager. Storing them in a plain-text file, a little sed/grep/awk and you're well on your way. For inspiration & hints, you might check out https://todotxt.org However, you can rapidly hit performance issues and limitations on available tooling if you stick to just POSIX tools.
