About:
Taskd is the official server component for the Taskwarrior task management system. It enables secure synchronization of task lists across multiple clients and devices. This formula installs the server daemon, allowing you to host your own private task synchronization service.

Key Features:

Secure TLS communication between client and server
Multi-user and multi-client support
Lightweight and standalone daemon
Integrates seamlessly with Taskwarrior CLI

Use Cases:

Self-hosting a private task synchronization server for personal or team use
Syncing tasks across multiple devices (laptop, desktop, mobile) via a central server
Maintaining data privacy by keeping task data off third-party cloud services

Alternatives:

Taskwarrior (standalone) – Taskwarrior can run locally without a server, but lacks automatic synchronization across multiple devices.
Vitodocus – A third-party sync server for Taskwarrior, but Taskd is the official reference implementation.
