I've tried all of the Unixy tasks managers* and vim-tasks works well for me: https://github.com/irrationalistic/vim-tasks

Any file with .tasks turns into a todo list with keyboard shortcuts to create/complete tasks. Which is useful when adding them to projects on github.

I don't bother with trying to have one sync with mobile anymore. Simpler the better.

* I still need to try out org-mode

I, too, have build a task manage with Vim support:

I did it for the same reasons-- simpler is better, focus on finishing tasks and not organizing them. The more I can stay inside Vim and not out of it, the better!

I didn't add any history support because all of the tasks are stored in .tasks.json, if you want history, just check it into git and bam, history.

That looks great, thanks. I generally live inside vim, and this looks like a nice, simple solution.
