Farora Makes the Markdown File the Task

farora.tools Observed source

Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A local-first terminal task manager that stores every task as a durable Markdown file in a folder you own.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-09 issue.

Field notes

Farora stores tasks as Markdown files under a local project directory rather than in a database, with frontmatter for metadata and JSONL files for per-task history. The documented interface combines a tree view, detail pane, live filtering, typed deadlines, fuzzy reparenting, and keyboard commands; writes remain atomic and confined to one file. Version 0.5.0 is linked on PyPI, and the page lists macOS with Python 3.14+.
