 A small, self-hosted to-do app for one person. It works in a desktop browser and on a phone, and you can install it to your home screen.
 
-- Tasks have an optional **deadline** with an optional **time range** (e.g. 10:00–12:00), **priority** (none / low / medium / high), **category**, **tags**, **notes**, and a **checklist** of steps.
+- Tasks have an optional **plan date** (when you'll do it), an optional **deadline** (when it must be done), and an optional **time range** (e.g. 10:00–12:00). Each task also has a **priority**, **category**, **tags**, **notes**, and a **checklist** of steps.
+- **Postpone** any task from the ⏭ button: today, tomorrow, the weekend, next week, in 2 weeks, next month, or a date you pick. You can move either the plan date or the deadline.
+- Unfinished planned tasks **roll over**: they stay in Today until you do them or postpone them, and they never turn red. Only missed **deadlines** count as overdue.
+- **Backlog** lists tasks with no date at all. Today suggests a couple of them so they don't get forgotten.
+- **Projects** group the tasks of a bigger goal and have their own deadline, notes and progress bar. Today shows each active project's **next step**, how much time is left, and a warning if it's falling behind or nothing was done on it in over a week.
 - **Recurring tasks** (every N days/weeks/months/years): completing one creates the next occurrence.
 - When you pick a date and time, the task form lists what else is planned that day and warns about overlaps.
-- Views: **Today** (overdue, due today, high priority), **Upcoming**, **Calendar** (day timeline with week strip; tap an hour to add a task there), **All open**, **Done**, plus one view per category.
+- Views: **Today**, **Upcoming**, **Calendar** (day timeline with week strip; tap an hour to add a task there), **Backlog**, **All open**, **Done**, plus one view per project and per category.

 - **Export / import** of all data as JSON, from **Settings**.
 - Login with a single password.

+Requirements: Docker with the Compose plugin. You don't need the source code: only `docker-compose.yaml` and a `.env`.
 
 ```sh
+mkdir whattodo && cd whattodo
+# copy docker-compose.yaml and .env.example from this repo into this folder
 cp .env.example .env          # then edit .env: set APP_PASSWORD and SECRET_KEY

 Useful commands:
 
 ```sh
-docker compose logs -f              # follow logs
-docker compose down                 # stop
-docker compose up -d --build        # rebuild after pulling changes

+docker compose down                       # stop
+docker compose pull && docker compose up -d   # update to the newest published version
+```
+
+To pin a version, set `WHATTODO_TAG=<version>` in `.env`, e.g. `v1.0` or a commit (default: `latest`).
+
+## Develop (build from source)
+
+`docker-compose.build.yaml` builds the image from this checkout. Add this line to your `.env` so plain `docker compose` uses it:
+
+```sh
+COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose.build.yaml
+```
+
+```sh
+docker compose up -d --build        # build and start
 docker compose run --rm test        # run the test suite (in Docker)
 ```
 
+### Publishing the image
+
+`./publish.sh` builds the last commit (uncommitted changes are left out) and pushes it to
+`git.goyban.com/goyban/whattodo` as `:latest` and `:<commit>`. `./publish.sh <tag|branch|commit>` publishes another version.
+To release a numbered version, tag the commit first: `git tag v1.1 && ./publish.sh v1.1` also pushes the image as `:v1.1`.
+Log in once first with `docker login git.goyban.com`, using a Gitea token with package write access as the password.
