Project Description

Simple way to allow yourself to really focus on your work. With this app, you’ll always see (no matter what application you’re using) the name of the selected task. Uses Asana as backend and shows tasks assigned to you, picked for today.

Aside from that, you can use it to complete those tasks, or quickly add new ones, that you want to focus on now.

Navigation within the app is simple, and mirrors full Asana:

ctrl + enter – completes the task
up/down arrows – next/previous task
typing – updates current task’s name
enter – adds new task

You will need to provide your API key, available from http://app.asana.com/-/account_api

If you want the app to take up even less space, you can toggle the header (but you won’t be able to move it unless you toggle it back – for now). The code is partially based on the example Chrome Extension made available by Asana.

Example usage

The way I use it, is to add many tiny tasks as I go and work, so that whenever I get distracted, I can just look at it and see what I am supposed to work on at that very moment. If I make a daily task plan before work, as I complete the task, I will automatically see what’s the next thing I should be working on, without switching back to Asana.
