Okay...What's so special about this simple to-do list app? I remember making one of these in my Intro to Java course back in college...So much disruption :)

I am not sure if it is a genuine question or a patronizing comment, but... let's use the principle of generosity right? :)

My idea is that most to-do lists are very simple and focus on a minimalistic UI. Which is great if you just need bullet points and have all of the necessary info to perform the task in your mind (or elsewhere). For my personal use, I needed a to-do list with more room to include more detail and register notes on every iteration of a recurring task. That's the use case of Dediddo.

And for what is worth, I do not plan to disrupt any industry. I plan to find a niche for an approach that is kind of lacking in current popular to-do lists apps. What do you think about this use case? Do you think there is a niche out there?

How does it compare to Toodledo?

My approach is to make everything skimmable, making it easier to get the context without too much clicking.

Obviously, Toodledo has much more features, but I think this is the basic UI design choice that differentiates Dediddo from Toodledo.

apparently the original concept was tailored for this use-case: "Dediddo is the minimal sales tool for non-sales people: founders, entrepreneurs, marketers, fundraisers. Easy, obvious organizer for your sales contacts and to-dos. You will have peace of mind while managing your contacts and improve your performance. Perform better on your sales."
