Description

The TaskNotes plugin transforms task management by treating each task as an individual Markdown note enriched with YAML frontmatter. It supports extensive metadata like due dates, statuses, priorities, contexts, and project links, allowing users to create deeply connected and highly customizable workflows. With multiple views including calendar, kanban boards, filtered lists, and daily agendas, it fits both simple to-do tracking and complex project planning. Time tracking features like start/stop timers, session history, and an integrated pomodoro timer help monitor productivity. Tasks can also recur with per-instance tracking, and the plugin supports ICS feed subscriptions for syncing with external calendars. The ability to extend frontmatter for custom fields enhances compatibility with other Obsidian tools like Bases.
