Terminal-style todo app built with Electron.

No big buttons. No huge dashboard. Just commands, tasks, and a little terminal energy.

current version: 1.5.0

./run

npm install
npm start

The app is meant to run through Electron. Live Preview can show the UI, but filesystem features like saving, loading, exiting, and language discovery need Electron.

./commands

~ > help                         show commands
~ > addtask finish README        add task
~ > removetask 1                 remove task
~ > edit 1 finish docs           edit task text
~ > move 3 1                     move task
~ > done 1                       mark done
~ > undone 1                     mark not done
~ > echo hello\nworld            print text, supports \n
~ > copy 2                       copy task text
~ > lang list                    list languages
~ > lang pl                      change language
~ > clear                        clear terminal
~ > about                        app info
~ > exit                         close app

./languages

Available language files live in lang/.

lang/en.json
lang/pl.json
lang/es.json
lang/de.json
lang/fr.json

Add another language by creating a new two-letter JSON file with the same keys, for example:

lang/it.json

Then run:

~ > lang list
~ > lang it

./storage

Tasks and the selected language are saved in tasks.json.

{"lang": "en",
  "tasks": [
    {
      "text": "finish README",
      "done": false
    }
  ]
}

Task status is rendered like this:

1. [✗] not done yet
2. [✓] done

./files

index.html       app shell
renderer.js      command logic and app UI behavior
style.css        terminal styling
main.js          Electron main process
preload.js       bridge between UI and Electron
tasks.json       saved language and tasks
lang/*.json      translations

./build

npm run build:win
npm run build:linux

Current 1.5.0 build targets:

Windows:
  ToDo Setup 1.5.0.exe

Linux:
  ToDo-1.5.0.AppImage
  todo-1.5.0.pacman
  todo_1.5.0_amd64.deb

./dev-notes

This project uses:

Electron
HTML
CSS
JavaScript
JSON language files

The renderer does not write files directly. It calls Electron through preload.js, then main.js handles filesystem access.

Selecting text in the app copies it to the clipboard after the mouse button is released. The copy <number> command uses the same clipboard bridge.
