Zen

If you're someone who values simplicity and ease of use in software, Zen might just be the productivity tool for you. One of the standout features of Zen is its storage system: all your projects and data are stored in plain text. This makes it much simpler to manipulate your data even if you don't have access to Zen at the moment. Additionally, all the data is stored in the YAML format, making it easily readable and modifiable.

When it comes to working with Zen, there are a few requirements you'll need to meet. Specifically, you'll need to make sure you have a project called 'todo list' set up. This is a small hurdle to overcome, though, as you'll quickly find out that setting up projects is quite simple. Once you have your 'todo list' project created, you'll be able to start adding tasks to it.

Each project in Zen must have a name, naturally, and each task must have a description (or "desc," as Zen calls it). This intuitive naming convention makes it much more straightforward to keep track of everything you're working on. Whether you're using Zen for personal projects or for work, you'll appreciate how easy it is to stay organized and focused, all thanks to the app's user-friendly design.
