"text": "For a long time (after devouring Atul Gawande’s The Checklist Manifesto), I&#x27;ve noticed a gap in the productivity tool market—most tools don&#x27;t cater well to repeatable checklists. Task managers handle one-off tasks effectively, but falter with routines. On the other hand, project management software often feels overly complex. What I wanted was in the Goldilocks Zone between Todoist and Jira.<p>For my own personal use, I created StepList. I&#x27;ve used it to assist and track workouts, my daily workday, software deployment and setup, household management, and more. Over the last year I&#x27;ve prepared StepList for sharing with others, and it&#x27;s finally ready. It&#x27;s designed to be unobtrusive and straightforward, allowing you to focus seamlessly on your tasks.<p>Key features include:<p>Easy List Creation: Quickly make lists with basic formatting options.<p>Search and Access: Find your lists and those shared by others.<p>Efficient Execution: Perform tasks swiftly, whether on a computer or mobile browser.<p>Flexible Scheduling: Set up lists to be done once or on a recurring basis, with email reminders.<p>Simple Delegation: Assign lists via email, no StepList account needed for collaborators.<p>StepList is fairly vanilla Rails 7 app. I&#x27;ve found Hotwire to be a powerful tool for building apps that work well on mobile and desktop (though in a few key places, I eschew it to keep things fast).<p>StepList is free to use, with a $5&#x2F;month premium plan for unlimited scheduled, delegated, and private lists.<p>- Drew",
