Vikunja - An Open-Source, Self-Hostable To-Do App

[@WillHung]

Another great video. I struggled to spin it up in my early days of learning docker. I might do it again after watching the video. Thanks, Jim.

[@Jims-Garage]

Let me know how you get on

Thanks for the video, will try it out. BTW, regarding the 3:35: "ci" stands for "case insensitive", which sorts "Foo" after "bar". The alternative is "cs" ("case sensitive", of course) which in turn sorts "Foo" before "bar". There are also "ai" and "as" ("accent insensitive" and "accent sensitive", respectively). This option regulates whether, e.g., the following letters are considered equal or distinct during sorting: e, ë, è, é, and ê. That option would usually be set depending on the language of the database content. "ci_as" is a quite common configuration.

[@Jims-Garage]

Thanks, that's useful to know

I just spun the app up via Docker. Nice multi user application for ToDo List tracking and Project Tasks. GUI User Controls would be nice. Leaving the app available to the Internet with Self Registration is a bit risky. Fixed with the correct Environment variable so not so bad. This was a nice quick "Get it up and running" tutorial James. This type of turorial encourages us to learn more about it to suite our needs. Thanks

[@Jims-Garage]

I agree, thanks for the feedback 😃

[@DigitalByteBard]

Excited for this. Just started watching.

[@Jims-Garage]

Thanks, it's a cool app

[@toddselby443]

Added this to my to do list of stuff to spin up!

[@MarcMcMillin]

Thanks James! 🙂 I'm gonna spin this up in Swarm

[@Jims-Garage]

Let me know how it goes!

As always, thank you, Jim!👍

[@Jims-Garage]

You're welcome 😁

Great project. I’d be interested it integrating with SSO opposed to doing local accounts.

[@iraa9198]

just an aside, the animal's name is Vicuña, so the J here should be read as if in German or Polish maybe. read it Vicunya. (end of PSA) Unecdote: a Vicuña is an undomesticated/wild cousin of the Llama, which is why there's a Free-licensed LLM called Vicuña which is not as censored and civilized as Meta's model called LLAmA.

[@Jims-Garage]

Thanks for the background, good to know

[@bluesquadron593]

Haha, shocking. I have spent considerable time to get Vikunja up and running just recently, after Gitea. 😂

[@Jims-Garage]

😅 great, hopefully this works for you

[@bluesquadron593]

I should add, my issues were related to SSO with Authenik.

[@levybuildz]

May we please get a shlink link shortener tutorial. I have been at it for a couple weeks now and just can’t seem to get it up and running correctly with my sub domain. Thanks in advanced and for all your vids so far

[@Jims-Garage]

Added! Thanks 👍

[@davidbarr832]

I found this app useful. But you know the wife likes it much easier to come up with the honeydews.😊

[@cig_in_mouth3786]

Yeap they are great until they ditched their old way and my data can't be migrated. Previously they have frontend and api different

[@vikunjaio]

Hey! The actual data storage mechanism hasn't changed when we combined API and frontend. The data should be stored in the database or sqlite file. Please open an issue or start a thread in the forum so that we can look into this.

without mobile apps on ios/android platforms it's not useful ..
