TempTasks is a simple, fast and easy to learn desktop app for temporary tasks. It is a scratchpad — everything lives in memory only, nothing is written to disk, and every session starts clean.
- Multi groups — create, rename and delete task groups, switch between them with tabs.
- Edit — check tasks off, double-click any task to edit it in place.
- Your task, you color — customize the theme color from the Options window, applied live to every window.
- Ensure you have Node.js installed (v20+).
- Run
git clone https://github.com/tsuchipls/TempTasks.git. - Install dependencies with
npm install. - Start the app with
npm run start.
You can also run npm run build to have the installer create a desktop shortcut for you and launch the app.
TempTasks does not save anything:
- No storage file, no auto-save, no export — tasks and groups only live in memory for the current session.
- Closing the app clears everything, so every launch starts from a clean slate.
- Use it as a scratchpad; copy anything you want to keep elsewhere before closing.
