Plocs (https://plocs.com) | Junior TypeScript / C# developer | Bregenz, Austria | REMOTE

We have built an MVP of our goal-oriented task manager Plocs (https://plocs.com).

We recently did a Show HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33639228) and the feedback was great .

If you would like to help bring this MVP to millions of customers, drop me an email at chris (at) plocs.com

Definitely an interesting idea! There's some tasks I keep postponing over and over and there could be some smarter logic for that, I think.

It's true that most of the time these goals are intermediate or short term goals, and not long-term goals. It's worth considering if it would be useful to add information about long-term goals to tasks.

It would definitely be possible to reduce the height of tasks when they don't much text. Something we'll consider for the next version.

Thanks for your bug reports!

Having an inline editor is something multiple people mentioned here, we are definitely considering it.

Drag and drop is also something we have been thinking about, but I always considered it a bit tricky to implement well.

Hope you give Plocs a try some time!

Great feedback, an offline version is something we've been thinking about.

Lots of great points in your blog post!

- I agree the animations should be faster, and we'll experiment if they are needed at all.

- We decided to duplicate tasks sometimes so we can order the next tasks on the left chronologically.

- Our monetization plan is to have a paid plan for business customers eventually.

Thanks for letting me know, that seems to be a problem with some screen sizes. Currently trying to figure it out.

We have an app, too. Search for "Plocs" on the app store or click the link on the website if you scroll down a bit.

Being able to quickly add a series of tasks would be great, I agree. Adding keyboard shortcuts + an inline editor could work, I think.

I agree that the flowchart view can be distracting when you just want to look at the next actions. Would a view/option that hides all successors be a solution for this?

Thanks for the feedback. We are planning to add a paid version for business customers in the long term.

Not planning to have ads targeted or otherwise. I will remove this from the privacy policy.

The bug when exiting the subtask menu in the demo should be fixed now.

It seems to work for me right now.

Thanks, great observations.

1) Right now the back button saves the Ploc. You're completely right that the comment button looks like it might do that. We did not consider that this when we moved the comment button there...

2) This is a bug in the demo, unfortunately. I'm working on it!

I had not tested the demo extensively yet so this obvious bug slipped through unfortunately. It should work in the actual application / app in case you want to try it.

Good idea, I think I'll add a setting for speeding them up.

Thanks a ton for trying it out. Feel feel to contact me at chris (at) plocs.com if you run into any issues.

I'll add a separate setting for the date format.
