GTDNext vs Teuxdeux

All the “Get Things Done” lists you would expect: next actions, someday, waiting, and scheduled.

When it comes to choosing your next action, most to-do apps suffer from the same problem: All of your actions (sometimes hundreds in total) are visible to choose from. This can overwhelm users and cause them to give up on the system. GTDNext is different. In the "Next Action" view, only the very next action is shown for each of your projects. This results in a nicely consolidated view of only the things that need your immediate attention.

In GTDNext you can set up an unlimited number of levels for your projects and actions, allowing you to plan your project and sub-projects in as much detail as needed.

GTDNext supports the “Areas of Focus” methodology from Getting Things Done. You can filter all of your tasks to just show your work tasks, side project tasks, or personal tasks. There is also a global filter, so that when you’re hard at work you can focus only on your work projects and tasks.

This is really useful because it prevents you from having to navigate through each project individually.

The number of keyboard shortcuts makes it easy to log or add tasks without removing your hands from the keys.

On desktop, tasks are assigned to a single line. To see the full description, you can hover over that task. Editing can be done by double clicking, and re-ordering the events are as easy as dragging them around.

It also supports markdown - a common web formatting tool that allows italics by putting single asterisk () around words or phrases, and bold can be done by using two (*) before and after the phrase you want to be bold. It can also handle links by putting the text you want visible in square brackets, and the link in round brackets so this: [Slant Homepage](https://www.slant.co] would look like this: Slant Homepage

Instead of trying to be a both a calendar and to-do app, it focuses much more on the to-do aspect. There is a calendar view, however your tasks aren't organized by time - just by order. You can reorder the day's events, and if you don't get them done they will automatically roll over into the next day, so you can be sure that you aren't ever missing anything.
