Design Ethos

• Open source, self-hostable, paid public hosting.
• It should feel fun and rewarding, above all else.
• It should be simple - no tags, extra fields, or big forms.
• It must be convenient and quick to view and complete tasks.
• Target users: neurodiverse people, kids, or anyone that wants easy planning and fun feedback

Mascot Ideas

• Would a mascot be useful?
• A cute little robot pal that celebrates when you complete tasks
• Maybe it eats completed tasks? And it likes to be fed multiple times a day?
• It would be interesting to have it in a corner, constantly emoting and reacting as you add and complete tasks
• CRITICAL: It should only CELEBRATE with the user. It MUST express either neutral or happy emotion. NEVER negativity or shame.

UI Thoughts

• It should look like a plain ol' planner. Something like this
• Maybe even have
• Several iOS apps have nice, plain weekly planner UIs
  • https://apps.apple.com/us/app/weekly-planner-diary-notes/id1187285712
  • https://apps.apple.com/us/app/planner-daily-weekly-calendar/id1538190047
• What about a retro 90's PDA UX? It'd appeal to a certain kind of dork. It's also a UI with a vertical aspect ratio. Making it perfect to adapt to a mobile UI or sidebar UI.

Devices

• Web via Blazor
• iOS/Android via Blazor MAUI
• Apple TV, with real-time integration

Beyond Initial Scope

• GDPR / CCPA compliant
• Import/Export
  • Initially just to files. Maybe in markdown, json, or plaintext
• Syncing support to Apple Reminders (via applescript agent?), Google Calendar, etc
• IFTTT-like integration for completing or adding tasks

Apple Reminders Syncing Notes

• No REST API available
• [https://developer.apple.com/documentation/eventkit](EventKit SDK Details)
• Will need native app for syncing via EventKit

Templates

What if the UX is customizable, and allows users to make a template like the screenshot below. There could be many different templates to choose from.

This would be just like shopping for planners at a store. Different styles and templates to choose from.
