Amazing feature requests, major and minor bug reports are piling up, and great discussions are ongoing. I want to thank you for supporting this project. But I also need to admit that I'm overwhelmed by the sheer amount of work. Please understand that sleek is FOSS and I'm not aiming to earn money with it, so my time on the project is limited. This project will benefit from

• Refactoring existing code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript)
• Adding missing e2e test cases (Playwright)
• Improving UX/UI
• Improving automation in sleeks distribution channels (Snap, Flathub, homebrew, AUR, Windows App Store, Mac App Store)
• Managing the issues list on GitHub

If you want to support, please get in touch with me here or check the issue list and start working on bugs and feature requests.

sleek is an open-source (FOSS) todo manager based on the todo.txt syntax. Stripped down to only the most necessary features, and with a clean and simple interface, sleek aims to help you focus on getting things done.

All classic todo.txt attributes are supported and enhanced by additional features. Creating todos is straightforward, and tag-based filtering in tandem with highly customisable grouping and smart full-text search allow for rapid information retrieval. Completed todos can be hidden or archived into separate done.txt files. Easy integration with other todo.txt apps is facilitated by continuously scanning todo.txt files for changes.

sleek is available for Windows, MacOS and Linux, and in several languages. For a detailed list of features, see below. Many useful information can be found in sleek's wiki.

A prioritized backlog of new features and known issues as well as an overview on what is being worked on at the moment can be found here.
