About these scores

OSS scale score is an unbounded metric that log-compresses and weights Stars, Watchers, Forks, and Contributors. Discovery score is the current OSS scale score minus the score at discovery. Update pace is commits in the last 30 days, growth momentum is the OSS scale score difference within the recent observation window, and OSS health is a 0–100 rating based on available recency, Community Health, and release data.

Overview

Donetick is a self-hostable task manager for individuals, families, and groups. It combines flexible recurrence, automatic assignee rotation, subtasks, time tracking, notifications, NFC tags, Home Assistant, REST APIs, and webhooks to automate recurring household work. The latest release checked is v0.1.79.

Features and best fit

Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:

Share chores and automate recurrence and assignee rotation

Schedules can be daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, weekday-based, completion-relative, or adaptive. Assignees can rotate by completion count, randomly, or round-robin, while subtasks and time tracking support more detailed work.

Connect household tasks to NFC, notifications, Home Assistant, and APIs

NFC tags can complete tasks physically, while notifications can arrive through mobile clients, Telegram, Discord, or Pushover. Home Assistant exposes per-user to-do lists, and REST APIs/webhooks support custom automation.

For households and small groups that need recurring work assigned and rotated

It is especially useful for cleaning, trash, maintenance, and similar recurring chores where the important question is not only what is due, but who should do it next. Dashboard and points features also support shared-device use.

Account for pre-1.0 changes, limited offline support, and API/OIDC permissions

The current release is v0.1.79. The README describes offline functionality as very limited. Self-hosting requires persistent SQLite/config data and backups. OIDC roles can synchronize from identity-provider groups at every login, so administrator and manager mappings are security-sensitive. Long-lived integrations should consider the limited eAPI rather than broad full API access. Donetick is AGPL-3.0.

Supplemental curator note

Donetick is especially oriented toward recurring household work shared among family or housemates, extending into NFC and Home Assistant automation. Its README describes offline support as limited, so it should not be treated as a fully local-first task manager.
