  1. A concise and simple weekly to do list calendar app to organize your tasks online. A lightweight weekly planner to maintain your focus and boost productivity week over week.

    One way is to keep a running to-do list in your notebook. Although, the Tweek calendar is a lot nicer. It works in the browser as well as having an iPhone and Android app.

  2. Rize is a time tracker that makes you more productive.
    This is where Rize comes in. For the data obsessed developer, Rize will give you a breakdown of where you are spending your time and will even give you little prompts when it thinks you are getting distracted.

  4. A second brain, for you, forever. Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files.
    There are quite a few note-taking applications available. Personally, I like Obsidian. All my notes in Obsidian are stored in Markdown, locally on your machine.
