Thanks for the feedback! @jessegrosjean’s ideas are great, and very aligned with my goals. The goal is not to replace the TaskPaper app, but to complement it. In fact: I forgot to mention DropBox sync in my introduction here, but it was already mentioned as TODO #1 in the README).
However, I don’t think it is feasible to focus on the TaskPaper data model instead of the text format:
- First, as a poor PC user, I can’t use the TaskPaper Mac app.
I currently manage my taskpaper files from gVim… - More importantly: DropBox synchronizes at the file level so it makes synchronizing at the task/item level of the data model difficult, if not impossible. I actually ran into this problem with my POC when trying to sync birch-outline with CodeMirror. I opened an issue here that goes into more detail.
Do you have any suggestions for how to implement DropBox sync with regard to the issues above?
