    I've adapted todo.txt format to be a worse-is-better combined calendar/appointments and task list, for personal use (not a lot of meetings scheduled, nor videoconf&chat integration). It works well enough for now. http://todotxt.org/ Basically, change the meaning of the date on a todo.txt item to be the soonest date that task/appointment can be done, have optional time of day (point or range), and sort it in a particular order (pending before completed, then by date, then by time of day). Every day, tasks you didn't do, search&replace the date to tomorrow. https://www.neilvandyke.org/todotxt/.

  3. Taskwarrior is an ambitious project bringing sophisticated capabilities to a simple and elegant...

    I used taskwarrior (https://taskwarrior.org/) for years and loved it but eventually stopped because of there was no way around having to manage a separate task manager on my phone. I follow GTD and it really demands that you be able to add tasks immediately so I would end up maintaining two lists. Not very effective so I went back to using Things.

  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.
    I've been using a markdown-based calendar in [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) together with a regular Google Calendar, and so far, it's been working great for me. For markdown, I simply create interconnected notes for years, months, weeks, and days and note down tasks, birthdays, and whatever. For scheduling, I regular Google Calendar events. In the notes, I keep track of what actually happened or has to happen (todos, etc.). * A preview can be seen here https://github.com/lorey/obsi/tree/master/example/output/calendar. * I've also created a script to automatically generate all the files for me: https://github.com/lorey/obsi.
