todometer

todometer is a Windows application made with the help of the Electron framework, which facilitates a stylish interface for writing simple todo lists. The project has been recently released and doesn't have too many features at the moment. However, it's geared toward users interested in a straightforward way of remembering tasks and crossing them out once they're done.

Following a fast setup operation that shouldn't give you any trouble, you come face to face with a clean interface, where you can start adding items to the todo list right away. It's possible to add as many tasks as you want. They can be moved in the "do later" category by clicking the || button as well as marked as completed by clicking the tick button.

As the list grows, you can take a look at the meter on the upper side of the window, which represents your progress. The meter shows the distribution of all tasks, whose color can tell you if they have been completed (green), moved to the "do later" group (yellow), or just not done yet (dark grey).

Any task can be removed from the list by clicking the x button. You can also reset your progress, view the current date and day of the week, undo or redo actions, cut, copy and paste text, switch to full screen mode, reload everything, hide the app, or minimize it to the taskbar. Keyboard shortcuts can be used for some of these commands.

todometer had no trouble running on Windows 10 in our tests. Its impact on the system's performance was barely noticeable. On the other hand, it has a light set of features at the moment.

For example, there are no options implemented for setting up a scheduler with tasks, dates and multiple categories. Also, it's not possible to save or export list, nor to recall history of past tasks. However, as said earlier, the project is new and has plenty of room for improvement.
