Project Overview

What This Project Does

Tududi is a self-hosted task management system designed around hierarchical organization and smart automation. It prioritizes user flow over rigid structures - a productivity tool that doesn't "fight back."

Core Philosophy:

Key Capabilities:

  • Hierarchical Organization: Areas > Projects > Tasks > Subtasks
  • Smart Recurring Tasks: Multiple patterns with parent-child tracking
  • Multi-Language Support: 24 languages via i18next
  • Collaboration: Project sharing with granular permissions
  • REST API: Swagger docs + personal API tokens
  • Telegram Integration: Create tasks via messages, daily digests
  • Tag System: Flexible tagging across tasks, notes, projects

Target Users: Self-hosting individuals and teams managing personal or collaborative productivity

Technology Stack

Frontend:

  • React 18 + TypeScript 5.6
  • Webpack 5 (build) + webpack-dev-server (development)
  • Tailwind CSS 3.4 + Heroicons
  • Zustand (global state) + SWR (server state)
  • React Router 6, i18next (24 languages)

Backend:

  • Express 4.21 + Sequelize 6.37 (ORM)
  • SQLite 5.1 (WAL mode, optimized)
  • bcrypt + express-session (auth)
  • Swagger (API docs), Multer (uploads)
  • node-cron (scheduling), Nodemailer (email)

Testing:

  • Jest (backend + frontend)
  • Playwright (E2E)
  • Supertest (API integration tests)
