Tracks

Web app for David Allen's Getting Things Done methodology

About Tracks

Tracks is a web-based application that helps you implement David Allen's Getting Things Done methodology. It organises next actions by context and project, with tags, starring, due dates, a tickler file, recurring scheduling, statistics and feeds, and it is multi-user so families or small teams can each manage their own lists. Open source, free and GPL licensed, it runs on Ruby on Rails or in Docker.
