What Yara Done does

Plain Markdown storage

Tasks are saved as standard - [ ] checkboxes in .md files. Open and edit them in any text editor — no proprietary format, no cloud account required.

Priority levels & due dates

Colour-coded High / Medium / Low priority with !!!, !!, ! prefixes. Due dates via a calendar picker with overdue alerts highlighted in red.

#tag support & filtering

Add #tags anywhere in your task text. Tags appear as sidebar buttons — click any tag to filter the list to just those tasks instantly.

Multiple lists in tabs

Open several .md task files simultaneously in separate tabs. Switch between work, personal, and project lists without closing anything.

Search, filter & drag-reorder

Real-time text search, priority filter buttons, and tag sidebar filters. Reorder tasks by dragging and dropping — changes are saved immediately.

System tray & quick-add

Minimises to the system tray so it's always one click away. Right-click the tray icon to add a task instantly — without opening the full window.
