2dTaskBoard for Linux

Task management productivity app with markdown support

Overview

2dTaskBoard is a task management app designed for Linux users who want a clear way to organize their work.

It uses a 2D board layout where you can move tasks around in rows and columns.

This helps you see your tasks from different angles and organize them based on priority or category.

One of the main features of 2dTaskBoard is that it stores all your task data as files on your computer.

This means you can easily back up or sync your tasks using cloud services or tools like git.

If you like using markdown, this app supports it, so you can add formatted text to your tasks.

It also includes Mermaid support to create flowcharts, making it easier to visualize processes or ideas related to your tasks.

You can also attach files of any kind to your tasks for quick reference.

If you use Obsidian for notes, 2dTaskBoard lets you open tasks inside Obsidian and link them with your existing notes.

The app is fully usable with keyboard shortcuts, allowing faster navigation without needing a mouse.

However, 2dTaskBoard only works on Linux and does not offer features for team collaboration.

It also lacks category options beyond the 2D board for additional task organization.

Despite this, it is a good fit for Linux users who want a simple and flexible way to manage tasks with markdown and file syncing capabilities.
