Motivation

I'm an avid lister and I'm constantly writing out ToDo lists in my notebooks and on my whiteboards. Over time I found myself running into a few issues with my existing system pretty consistently. My whiteboards had pretty limited space and I would need to keep erasing old lists and sometimes there's nothing as satisfying as seeing a long list of checked off items. In my notebooks I would often end up with lists that were pretty scattered around and the thought of re-writing and re-organizing everything by hand is usually pretty daunting (Maybe I'll give Bullet Journaling a try someday...). Recurring and long term tasks were another issue that either required monopolizing space on the whiteboard to provide a constant reminder (even if I sometimes didn't want it) or writing the same thing over and over again everyday (I'm looking at you 'Gym'). I finally decided I needed a new system that would address these issues and figured I might as well build one myself.

Vision

The inspiration for this new system actually came from video games and the pretty typical Bounty/Contract/Objective system that can be found across many games. I drew the most inspiration from games that I've probably sunk too much time into, namely Destiny 2 and The Finals.

Feature Goals

Generate ToDo list based on a Bounty playlist.
