    A ir-gapped - Entirely self-contained. Runs without internet access, external services, or tracking

    Yet, has a dockerfile.

    Which is it? Iso27002 or no?

      Indeed, but I love writing in Perl and it still works great. It’s a shame it’s not more widely used.

        Nice!

        Although, unfortunately, a problem immediately presents itself: no notifications. I’m assuming that’s at least very difficult to implement if you’re trying to make it system agnostic? I’m scatterbrained and WILL forget any tasks exist if they don’t pipe up every once in a while. So this doesn’t really work for me, sorry :(

          Thanks for the feedback, always interesting to hear how people might use a tool like this.

          I do have email notifications in the roadmap, but to be honest, I’ve struggled to visualise how that might work for two reasons:

          1. One of Taskpony’s goals is that it’s as easy to install and run as it could be. Configuring email settings takes a lot of detail (especially when running in docker where you can’t rely on a local smtp). I’ve thought about other tools like ntfy.sh, which I love, but the whole ecosystem of dozens of systems and tools for DM style notifications is too wide to support.

          2. I wouldn’t use it like that, I’d use a calendar for distant events, and there’s no plans to support “Task must be done by” style timers, as again, I think the interface would get too complex. I keep Taskpony in a tabbed browser, and also as one of my daily bookmark folders, so it shows up regularly enough to show me.

          Out of interest, how would you use notifications, or see how they’d work? Are you thinking of browser notifications? And if so, on what logic might they trigger?

            I really wouldn’t want to impose my way of remembering stuff onto you. I’m still looking for any task list… thing… that really helps me stay on top of things, so just so you know: nothing else has hit the spot either.

            Any notification that is trying to help me needs to be as annoying and intrusive as possible. I just found an app to remind me of my meds that does full phone screen notifications with very annoying sound that you cannot easily dismiss without telling the app when to remind you next and I love it. So that might serve as a benchmark. (If it makes my watch vibrate that’s a definite bonus)

            But: Please don’t feel like you need to cater to my needs. I’m ADHD, I have special needs. Unless you’re developing an app for neurodivergent people, I’m not your target audience. L

            Develop the thing you would use.

    Awesome! I setup an instance from when you did the first release. I’m really enjoying it’s simplicity and using it daily.
