About:
Topydo is a command-line todo list application that strictly follows the todo.txt format specification. It provides a robust set of commands for managing tasks, including sorting, filtering, and dependency management. The tool offers a powerful alternative to the standard todo.txt CLI with enhanced features like task dependencies and improved output formatting.
Key Features:
  • Full compatibility with the todo.txt format
  • Advanced task filtering and sorting capabilities
  • Built-in support for task dependencies (blocking tasks)
  • Colorized output and customizable themes
  • Recurring task management
Use Cases:
  • Managing personal tasks and to-do lists from the terminal
  • Organizing project tasks with dependencies and priorities
  • Maintaining a lightweight, plain-text task database
Alternatives:
  • todo.txt-cli – The official reference implementation; topydo adds dependencies and more advanced features
  • vit – A terminal-based UI; topydo is command-first and scriptable
