STUPID TO DO LIST

This is a really really stupid to do list web app that shouldn't exist.

Watch it, stupid

Features

• Only the maintainer knows how to use it - watch the video. Like, thumbs up and subscribe.
• It's so stupid that the database is a text file.
• It only runs on your computer machine and you have to be a developer to know how to run it
• Four-column Kanban layout: TODO → SELECTED → WIP → DONE
• Sections with H1 (#) headers automatically categorized into columns based on keywords

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v14 or newer recommended)
• npm (comes with Node.js)

Project Setup

1. Clone or download this repository to your local machine
2. Navigate to the project directory in your terminal
3. Run npm install to install dependencies
4. Run npm run dev to start the development server
5. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:5173

Custom Todo Files and Directories

You can configure multiple directories and individual todo files using a stupidly named YAML configuration file:

1. Copy stupid.yaml.example to stupid.yaml
2. Edit stupid.yaml and add:
   • Directories to scan for .todo.md files
   • Individual .todo.md file paths
3. Restart the server

Example configuration:

# Directories to scan for .todo.md files
directories:
  - /Users/username/Documents/todos
  - /Users/username/Projects/todos

# Individual todo files to include
files:
  - /Users/username/Desktop/personal.todo.md
  - /Users/username/work/project.todo.md

Custom files will be displayed with a "Custom" or "Dir" badge in the file tabs.

Column Organization

The app automatically organizes your H1 (#) section headers into four columns:

• TODO Column: TODO, BACKLOG, INBOX, LATER, SOMEDAY, IDEAS, ICE
• SELECTED Column: SELECTED, HOLD, ONGOING
• WIP Column: WIP, SCHEDULED, IN PROGRESS, IN-PROGRESS, DOING, CURRENT, ACTIVE
• DONE Column: DONE, COMPLETE, COMPLETED, ARCHIVE, FINISHED, RESOLVED

Example:

# TODO
* [ ] Task 1

# SELECTED
### Week 1
* [ ] Prioritized task

# WIP
### Sprint 2
* [~] Task in progress

# ARCHIVE
* [x] Completed task
