Simple task management directly in your terminal.

• Add Tasks: Create tasks with a description and a unique ID.
• List Tasks: View all tasks interactively, toggle their status (TODO ↔ DONE).
• Show Task Details: Display detailed information about a specific task.
• Persistent Storage: Tasks are saved in a JSON file for persistence.

• jq (for JSON manipulation)
• gum (for interactive UI)

1. Ensure jq and gum are installed:

   sudo apt install jq       # Debian/Ubuntu
   brew install jq gum       # macOS

2. Save the script to a file, e.g., task.
3. Make the script executable:

   chmod +x task

4. Move it to your PATH for easy access:

   mv task /usr/local/bin/task

task add "Finish project report"

task show <task_id>

If <task_id> is omitted, an interactive menu will appear, allowing you to select a task.

task list

• Press Space to toggle a task's status (📝 ↔ ✅).
• Press Enter to confirm your selection.

• Tasks are stored persistently in .project_tasks/tasks.json in your current directory.
• Example task format:

  [
    {
      "id": "1672527600",
      "description": "Complete project documentation",
      "date": "2025-01-24 12:00:00",
      "status": "TODO"
    }
  ]

• Tasks are sorted by their status (📝 TODO first, then ✅ DONE) and by creation date.
