lazysourcea
A lightweight, keyboard-first task manager (Java 17, CLI).
Product overview
lazysourcea is a lightweight, command-line-driven task manager designed to help individuals capture, organise, and track work items with minimal friction. It focuses on rapid entry and simple, predictable behaviour so you can spend less time managing tasks and more time completing them. The app supports three basic task types (todo, deadline, event), persistent storage to disk, and a small set of intuitive commands for searching and manipulating tasks.
