history

Project history and usage

Dooit is a Python terminal user interface todo manager. It focuses on interactive task management, Vim-like keybindings, topic-separated todo lists, theming, and Python-based customization.

Project history

The public dooit-org/dooit repository was created in April 2022. Its README presents the project as a customizable TUI todo manager and points users to the project wiki for installation and configuration.

The project progressed from early 0.x tags to 1.0 and later 3.x releases. GitHub release metadata shows 3.3.4 published in November 2025, and repository metadata shows continued activity into 2026.

Adoption history

Dooit found a home in the terminal productivity niche: it is distributed through PyPI and appears in Unix package-manager ecosystems such as Homebrew, Alpine, and Nix. Its README also links a Discord community and screenshots of user-customized configurations.

How it is used

Users launch `dooit` to manage todo lists interactively in the terminal. The README highlights keybinding help with `?`, topic-separated lists with branching, and customization through a Python config file and companion Dooit Extras configurations.

Why package nerds care

Dooit is package-nerd interesting as part of the wave of polished terminal productivity applications distributed like developer tools. It is a Python TUI app with themes, extras, package-manager support, and release artifacts rather than a simple script.
