Show HN: Task Ranger
- JesseAldridge 15y agoThis is my current project. Feedback would be appreciated.
- ColinWright 15y agoWhere is it saving the data? If I return on a different machine, or different browser, will the data be there?
- JesseAldridge 15y agoNah, it's just localStorage for now. I'll add a backend at some point, but I want to keep things simple for the prototype.
- ColinWright 15y agoSo if I close the browser and then re-open it later then the data are gone? It works as long as I keep the browser open? Suggestion: a simple export/import option would help to cover this point. I should discipline myself to use something like this for a week or so to see if (a) I can make it a habit, and (b) whether or not it really does help. I might do that.
- JesseAldridge 15y agoThe data is saved to your hard-drive. So if you reopen the browser the data will still be there -- as long as you're using the same computer. And yeah, import/export is on the todo list. I'm thinking of adding some nag features. Like I can send an email if you don't access the tool for 24 hours. And I can make a ding noise if you don't update the task outline every 5 minutes or so. Once people start using the tool, I think they'll find it useful -- but the hard part is getting over that initial hump.
