A minimalist TODO list application, which aims to replace notion and its complicated features : open FlyingTodo, write a ToDo, close FlyingToDo, That's all. Really, that's all !
- A minimalist app, easy to navigate.
- One tab at a time: your brain stays focused.
- Easy personalisation: Change the colours of the app based on your mood !
- Easy organisation: You can add tags to your todos and change their colour!
- Note taking: Create notes to keep longer texts in the app.
FlyingTodo was made so that you don't get distracted when you go in the app that's supposed to boost your productivity. Notion and Obsidians are full of interesting features, but when you try to get on it, onboarding feels like ages, learning how to create pages/database is long, and creating and customizing your own little page takes you await from your productivity goals. FlyingToDo is simple, no configuration/account needed as it's local only, and you can customize it !
