About this productivity website reference
Productivity tools benefit from a clear explanation of the habit or workflow they support. Start with the task a person wants to organize and how they return to it each day. Avoid making a simple task-management idea depend on a large set of integrations at launch.
Use Todoist's official website to explore the reference. The notes below are planning guidance for your own product, not a specification of the reference site's internal systems.

Feature explanations
Planning your first release
Define recurring tasks, reminders and what happens when a due date changes. Choose whether the first release is personal or collaborative.
Technology and integrations
Notification delivery, calendar connections and cross-device synchronization need explicit scope.
The suggested stack of React, Node.js, PostgreSQL is a starting point. We would confirm it against your existing tools, data, expected traffic and maintenance needs before implementation.
What to bring to a scoping call
- Identify the customer journey you want to support and the action a visitor should complete.
- Bring your content, brand assets and details of any systems that must connect to the website.
- Separate launch essentials from later features, and agree how each essential workflow will be tested.
Scope, content readiness and integrations determine the estimate. Explore our MVP development process or discuss this reference with our team.
Questions about a similar build
Is real-time collaboration required for a task app?
Not for a personal task tool. Shared lists add permissions and conflict handling, so validate the collaborative use case before making it part of the first release.
Can you adapt the idea to my brand?
We can scope an original design and workflow for your business. This reference is inspiration; it does not include permission to reuse the original site's branding, content or code.
