Dependencies are handled with golang/dep so please install it first

Configuration

Configuration can be done with the following command

Configuration is machine specific so if you for example use notes in home/work you can set default tags to identify notes done in different locations. Also you might want to have due date and/or priority for some of the notes but not necessarily want to see them in another.

• Start working on note and track time to complete it
  • Should be able to stop work and track work time multiple times per note
  • Should be configurable to be used
• Add tests
• Support for "due today" or "due tomorrow" etc.
• More filters
  • ID range
  • Wildcard/regex searches for tags and content
  • Due date
• REST server for notes
• Background service for notifications
