Overview

NeueFocus is a task management and worklog application designed for individual productivity, inspired by the speed and clarity of Linear. Projects contain tasks, tasks can exist independently, and subtasks can nest. The Deep Focus page combines a journal entry for logging your work, a pinned task list for what you're working on now, and a fully configurable Pomodoro timer to maintain focus. Every aspect of the timer is configurable: number of cycles, focus duration, break duration, long break duration, and cycles until long break. Each user gets their own SQLite database via Turso for fast, isolated data access.
