# Steady 🌿 A calm, ADHD-friendly task list. One HTML file, no build step, no server, no account. Everything lives in your browser. ## Install There's nothing to install. `index.html` *is* the app. - **On this device:** double-click `index.html`, or drag it into a browser window. - **On another device:** copy the file over — USB stick, AirDrop, cloud drive (Dropbox/Drive/iCloud), email it to yourself, or push this folder to a private git repo and pull it down elsewhere. Then double-click it there too. Any modern browser works (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari); voice quick-add needs a Chromium-based browser (Chrome/Edge) — it hides itself automatically where it isn't supported. There's no server involved, so it also works fully offline once the file is on the device. ### Taking your tasks with you The app itself has no memory of its own — your *tasks* are saved by the browser you opened it in (via `localStorage`), tied to that browser on that device. Copying `index.html` to a new device gives you the app, but not last night's list. To bring your tasks along too: 1. On the old device: gear icon (⚙️) → **Backup your list** → **Export**. This downloads a `steady-backup-YYYY-MM-DD.json` file. 2. On the new device: open `index.html`, gear icon → **Restore / move to another device** → **Import**, and pick that JSON file. Importing adds tasks on top of whatever's already there — it never deletes or overwrites, so it's safe to import the same backup twice by mistake. > Because everything is local to the browser, clearing your browser's site > data/history for this file, or opening it in a different browser or > incognito window, will look like an empty list. Export a backup now and > then occasionally if you want a safety net. ## Using it - **Add a task** — type in the bar at the top and hit **Add** (or press Enter). The 🎤 mic button fills the bar by voice instead of typing. - **Update status** — click the circle on the left of a task to cycle ○ not started → ◐ in progress → ✅ done. Finishing a task plays a little chime and a burst of confetti. - **Break it down** — use "Add a small step" under a task to add subtasks. Checking off all of them automatically marks the task done. - **Flag it** — click **+ Urgent** or **+ Important** on a task to badge it (⚠️ yellow / 🎯 lavender). Click again to remove the flag. - **Set a reminder** — click ⏰ on a task to pick a date/time. You'll get an in-app notice when it's due, plus a real browser popup if you've enabled those in Settings. - **Not today** — click 😴 to push a task to tomorrow instead of deleting it. It reappears on its own; see it early under **Later** at the bottom. - **Delete** — 🗑️ removes a task, with a few seconds to **Undo**. - **Focus mode** — click **🔭 Focus mode** to see just the one task worth doing next (urgent and important tasks are prioritized), with everything else hidden. - **Filters** — the chip row (All / Not started / In progress / Done / Urgent / Important) narrows the list without deleting anything. - **Settings (⚙️)** — dark/light/auto theme, mute the completion chime, turn on browser reminders, a dyslexia-friendly font toggle (wider spacing, easier-to-scan typeface), clear completed tasks, and the export/import backup described above. ## Notes - No data is sent anywhere — no network requests, no analytics, no account. Everything the app knows lives in your browser's local storage. - Voice input and browser notifications both ask for one-time permission the first time you use them; both are entirely optional.
