Hey guys, version 2.5.3 of Tasks.md just got released!

This release is actually pretty small, as I focused a lot on resolving technical debt, fixing visual inconsistencies and improving "under the hood" stuff. Which I will continue to do a little bit more before the next release.

For those who don't know, Tasks.md is a self-hosted, Markdown file based task management board. It's like a kanban board that uses your filesystem as a database, so you can manipulate all cards within the app or change them directly through a text editor, changing them in one place will reflect on the other one.

The latest release includes the following:

• Feature: Generate an initial color for a new tags based on their names
• Feature: Add new tag name input validation
• Fix: Use environment variables in Dockerfile ENTRYPOINT
• Fix: Allow dragging cards when sort is applied
• Fix: Fix many visual issues

Edit: Updated with the correct link, sorry for the confusion! The fact that someone created another application with the same name I used for the one I made is really annoying

Hey guys, version 2.4.0 of Tasks.md was just released. The biggest change is the improved drag-and-drop experience, which feels much better to use. For touch devices it was fully overhauled, since it was not really working before (which is embarrassing tbh). You can see below a comparison between the previous version and the current release.

Hey selfhosted community,

Around a year ago I started a new project called Tasks.md, which is a self-hosted task management system that aims to be simple and easy to install. I also made this reddit post to share with the community.

Yesterday I released the version 2.0.0 so I thought it would be a good time to share it with the community again. The new version includes some previously requested features, some features that no one requested but I thought would be nice to have, simplifies the initial setup, improves documentations and some other things.

You can find it here: https://github.com/BaldissaraMatheus/Tasks.md.

Main features:

• Create cards, lanes and tags in a modern and responsive interface;
• Write cards as Markdown files;
• Easy to install with a single Docker image;
• Light and dark themes synced with operating system settings;
• Heavily customizable with 3 default color themes (Adwaita, Nord and Catppuccin);
• Support for subpath based reverse-proxy with an environment variable for base path;
• Can be installed as PWA (though it requires setting up https).
