# Mast
This project is born out of frustration with Taskwarrior's upgrade to version 3.0.0
I'm looking to build my own task management software, after nearly a decade of using taskwarrior. It tries very hard to emulate the good of taskwarrior, while also being more modern. Opinionated defaults, meets malleable software. I loved Taskwarrior, it grew with me so much, but I believe I can do better.
## Goal Map
I want a syncing cross platform, fast and effective tasks program. A web client for phone usage, and a CLI client at a computer. They sync through cr-sqlite, using a fairly simple websocket server (at this stage)
I plan to keep the `filter` and `add` commands from Taskwarrior. Probably lots of the properties too. I'm using PEGs for parsing these grammars.
I'd like real calendar integration (iCS) for `due:`
I'm not yet sure what I'd like to do for priority. I like the configurability of taskwarrior, but it's very heavy handed. Some kind of slider would be nice
I also need to find out a solution to virtual tags, and especially ID
I need it to keep integration with Kitaab. That largely means a _json interface, which is fine. Some compatibility layer with Taskwarrior for taskwarrior-tui would be cool too, but isn't yet on the goal list.
## Status
A vaguely unordered list of the next tasks to be accomplished, and those recently completed
Next:
- Parsing `task add` grammar (For JS)
- Make SQL files common, instead of embedded in each
- Parsing `task filter` grammar
- Defining all attributes
- Defining virtual attributes
Completed:
- Syncing between JS & Go clients
- Parsing `task add` grammar (For Go)
