tasks-tui

Task Status Symbols

Symbol Meaning
[ ] Task needs action
[X] Task completed
('Task Counts') Count of tasks/subtasks within (subtasks of subtasks do not display in web Google Tasks)

When you run the application for the first time, it will open a web browser and ask you to authorize the application to access your Google Tasks. After you authorize the application, it will create a token.json file in the ~/.gtask directory. This file contains your access and refresh tokens, so you won't have to authorize the application every time you run it. (Occasionally your token might become expire, so just delete token.json from ~/.gtask and rerun the application to reauthenticate!)
