As a super Type-A person dealing with the recent increase in remote work, it's been critical for me to structure my dev work in a way that allows me to get up and running quickly. Up until last year, I mostly used a pen and paper to-do list approach....

Thanks for sharing!! 😇😇 This is really helpfull while managing the workflow.

Thanks for reading Abhishek! Glad you found it helpful 🙂

Thanks for sharing 👏.

Things 3 looks nice and simple. Notion is also a great app, but maybe I find it bit too complicated. What I personally needed was a kind of general list app keeping everything I needed to remember and do. Had a hard time finding something I really liked so as a dev I built what I needed. Free for anyone to use mentalist.app

Have a nice day!

Thanks for reading Thomas! That’s great that you built something to suit your needs. Mentalist looks really cool and I really like the color scheme. Great work and thanks for sharing!

I'm a huge Things 3 advocate and loved reading about your workflow process. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Braydon, I appreciate that!

Love how simple the UI of this looks. I have been using Notion for a while now and it doesn't allow me write notes on the go. I'll give this a try! Thanks for sharing.

I use Notion as well but Things 3 is great for managing my TODO lists and projects! Definitely give it a try and I hope you like it!

Thanks for reading Neha kumari!

Have you tried Notion? if yes what do you think about it, by the way great article 🙂

I have tried Notion and really like it! In fact, I wrote an article about How I use Notion to Organize Resources. Feel free to check that out for more information.

Thanks for reading!

Great methodology. 🙌 Thanks for sharing, Alyssa

I appreciate that! Thanks for reading!

Today I learnt something new. I wasn't aware of this application! Thank you!

How come you chose this one, instead of Notion, let's say? I am curious because I might switch from Notion too. 🤔

I've been using Notion for about a year and really like it! I use it more as my general knowledge hub.

I prefer Things 3 as my task manager because of its simplicity and ease-of-use. It provides a great user experience.

It's all personal preference though 🙂

Catalin Pit How are you liking Notion and what's making you consider switching?
