I'm happy for you building this app, it's tremendous effort to build a flutter application, and this should feel like an achievement for you.

However, task management apps are so unbelievably common nowadays. Nothing that can't be solved by notepad on PC, or the clock/calendar app on my phone / and if I really need a task app, I'll use google's or build my own.

Your next step should be to take what you have learned from building this app, and focus on fixing a real problem that people around you face.

"To Do" or "Task Manager" apps seem to be just the most common thing to build after "hello, world." They are simple, easily scoped, something most people can intuitively understand, yet include all the basic features needed for any other app. So you can focus on how to implement rather than understanding what you are building.

Seriously! "Look at my new to do app" is how you say "I'm a junior dev who just learned how to program" without saying "I'm a junior dev who just learned how to program" ;)

  So what. If we allowed posts from only the most enlightened programmers whose elegant architectural energy allows them to hover 6 inches off the ground HN would be empty.

  Condescending much?
  I for one think it’s refreshing to see someone just posting a cool project they worked on without it being the next coming of Jesus or some AI-powered/coded nonsense people only pretend to care about so they can feel they are “on top of today’s tech”.
  HN nowadays is too LinkedIn-like for comfort, with people posting their larger-than-God projects and humble-brag filled articles.
  Kudos to the author of this project.
  Never mind the self-appointed greybeards using this as their own little podium. Hope you had fun making it (and learning with it!).

And yet, there are still basically no good task management apps for desktop. Todoist is the only one that comes to mind, but it's closed source and cloud/subscription based.

I'm really waiting for the desktop tasks.org client to come out. Until then, I can only manage my tasks from my phone, because no other FOSS apps come even close.
