I'm surprised no one in this thread has mentioned Workflowy[0]. It is extremely minimal and elegant, does everything that you're looking for (on first glance), and is completely free. Not to be hyperbolic but the interface is ingenious in it's power and simplicity. Give it a shot. [0]: https://workflowy.com/basics/

You just increment the month. March 20 m+1 is April 20. If the date is invalid, like January 30 m+1 then you fallback to next valid date, February 28/29.

Well, that’s not “the month” at all, though. At least not something I’d use outside of getting a rough idea for setting the next meeting, and absolutely wouldn’t use in code (but it’s probably fine for a todo - I’m complicating things, sorry ;-)) Edit: but perhaps that’s the custom used at many places and I’m just not aware.

A few people/companies I've worked with avoid using the last few days of the month for "monthly" things. For example, "every month on the 15th", "every month on the 1st", etc. It makes it easier to figure out compared to "every 30 days" or "every month on the 30th, unless there are less than 30 days in the month"

What's the file format? I hope the best for your app, but I hope I can still use those files if something happens to the company. I converted to .txt files 10 years ago for everything todo, but wouldn't mind a specialized utility for it!

I like the idea to manage my TODOs with keyboard as the first-class citizen. Two questions: 1. How can I keep offline without uploading data to cloud? My company won't allow me to do so and I want to manage business TODOs safely. 2. While I'm offline, how can I back up my TODOs? So I can restore them after I reinstall Godspeed?
