Overview

What is DumbDo?

DumbDo is a to-do list application that is stupidly simple, with the motto: get the job done, without a database or feature bloat. It is part of the DumbWare suite ('stupidly simple solutions to sophisticated problems') and aims for task management without complexity.

It offers a minimal and responsive interface, dark/light mode with system preference detection, support for multiple lists (or a single list via a setting), optional PIN protection (4 to 10 digits), and PWA support for installation as an app.

Technically, the backend relies on Node.js / Express and the frontend on vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Persistence is handled in a single JSON file, created automatically on first launch: no database to administer. Deployment is done via the official Docker image, under the GPL-3.0 license.

FAQ

You might be wondering…

Why such a simple to-do?

That's the whole spirit of DumbDo ('stupidly simple'): when you just want to list and check tasks, a complex system is counterproductive. DumbDo gets straight to the point, starts instantly, and stores your data only in a simple file.

Is there a database to manage?

No. DumbDo saves your tasks in a single JSON file on your instance. This makes it extremely lightweight, and backup is as simple as copying a folder — which DINAO handles automatically.

Can I protect access?

Yes, with an optional PIN code (4 to 10 digits). Combined with HTTPS and potential IP filtering, your list remains safe from prying eyes.

Can I install it as an app?

Yes. DumbDo is a PWA: you can 'install' it from the browser on desktop or mobile for one-click access.

Where are the data hosted?

On the DINAO infrastructure in France, in one of the available data centers. Your tasks stay on your instance, period.
