It's open source; if you believe C and ncurses are a better choice, you can make an alternative client that supports the same format.
It's not really a "client", note. There is no server involved. It's just a standalone utility that reads/writes a database stored in a file in JSON. The database format is undocumented.
You think that; but since it is undocumented, you don't know.
cat ~/.taskbook/storage/storage.json and you can see it.
Overall a very well documented repo if you ask me
You are confusing one particular data set with actual documentation of a database schema. Your notion of what "well documented" is seems to be an extraordinarily low bar, given that you apply it to the case where there is no doco at all.
It is just a JSON file no need of what you are talking about but agree to disagree
It's wrong to be downvoting this without some type of substantive reason. We all know that the guy above was dragging out the bemoaned javascript meme, and the second one was responding 100% as he should. Let's not use the downvote button as an "I'm disgruntled" button, that has never been how this community works.
Let’s not complain about downvotes because that’s in the FAQ.
It's bad to complain about downvotes to one's own posts, but complaining about those to others' posts is sometimes acceptable, especially in cases like this one where the post in question is so obviously correct.
Either way, it's off-topic meta noise. Nobody is going to change their voting behavior based on an admonishment, especially when the owner of the site has acknowledged that votes here are used as like/dislike.
If every time Reddit flubs a deployment we have to get one step closer to this being the case, I'd have to respectfully part ways with HN.
I think the appeal is not so much for downvotes to be reversed but for sympathetic upvotes to compensate for the downvotes?
