tyto

tyto is an extensible and customizable management and organization tool. Minimal UI, no accounts necessary, intuitive, extensible, localStorage persistence, time tracking, sortable UI, task linking, Markdown support, etc. Tyto arose from the want for an electronic post-it board without the need for accounts. Something simple and intuitive that could be easily shared. It's also the product of my own curiosity being used as an opportunity to pick up new tech stacks. It started as a vanilla JS app utilising one file and experimenting with HTML5 drag and drop. It then grew a little more, and a little more after that. Now it uses Backbone w/ Marionette. The next step? Most likely Angular 2.0 or React. In truth, most organisations have some form of tool for what Tyto is doing. In my experience though, they can be cumbersome, clunky and just a bit noisy. Some employees tend to dislike internal tools. You still see whiteboards and walls plastered in sticky notes.
