What Taskpony is

Taskpony is a free, self-hosted task manager for one person, delivered through a responsive browser app. It is designed to be fast, distraction-free, and easy to host on Linux or a web server. Tasks, lists, and settings are stored in one SQLite database file that can be backed up or moved. You can create unlimited tasks and lists, add descriptions, sort and filter items, and repeat tasks after a chosen number of days. Tasks can be copied to the clipboard, exported as CSV or PDF, or printed as a clean list. The maker says Taskpony needs no internet access or external services and includes no trackers or telemetry. Daily database backups are made, with retention configurable in Settings. Installation options include Docker Compose, Docker, or a standalone Linux systemd service. There are no Android or iOS apps; smaller-screen use is through a browser. Taskpony has no built-in authentication and is released under the MIT License.
