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.

New release:

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.

You can see below the main changes included in the new release.

  • Feature: Greatly improves drag and drop experience: New swap animations, visual indications and better interactions for touch and mobile devices;
  • Feature: Adds autoscroll when you drag cards and lanes partially out their container;
  • Bugfix: Fix touch and navigation on touch devices;
  • Bugfix: Fix issue where navigation bar outgrows lanes;
  • Bugfix: Prevents saving card name with invalid characters;
  • Bugfix: Fix some smaller issues;
  • Documentation: Remind user to hard-reload the browser after changing a theme.

      Caldav is a protocol to sync tasks and calendar events. Kanban is a way to sort/display tasks. The to things are orthogonal.

      I used nextcloud deck, a kanban board. Lo and behold, it uses calendar tasks under the hood, and you can sync them with caldav. Obviously you loose some features from the kanban board, but it’s a perfect middleground if you are nit a heavy kanban user.

        Obviously, you loose some from the kanban board

        This is my point.

        Also, isnt nextcloud deck via caldav read only?
