Notely

Tasks ​

Notely tracks standard Markdown checklist checkboxes (- [ ]) across all notes, aggregating them into workspace-wide dashboards.

1. Syntax ​

Create tasks in any note using Markdown syntax:

markdown
- [ ] An open task
- [x] A completed task

You can also use * or + as list indicators.

2. Aggregated Task Panels ​

Access your tasks workspace-wide using the Command Palette (Ctrl + K):

  • Open Tasks Panel: Displays a searchable list of all pending (- [ ]) tasks, grouped by the note they belong to. Click "Open note" to navigate directly to the task location.
  • All Tasks Panel: Displays both open and completed tasks. Helpful for auditing, generating changelogs, or reviewing project velocity.

3. Note-Level Task Summary ​

When editing a note, the editor top bar displays a compact task completion indicator. Hovering over it shows a summary of open and completed items within the active note. Clicking it launches the task summary popup.
