I really like this and can imagine using it regularly. Do you have any plans to support more color options in the future?

do you mean color for text , or for the widgets themselves .. we do plan on creating a dark theme , as well as adding more coloring options to the widgets

#33Bug report: When I add an invalid link (Like "123") to the Links widget it sends a request to "publicApi/links" which hangs for a few minutes before failing. It looks like you're requesting the URL server-side to provide a preview, you may want to validate the URL before making the request, or catch invalid requests.
yikes .. this is what happens when you ship ship ship ! thanks for the report

I meant both the widgets and the text: I tried changing the color of the widget to grey and with the default text color it was very difficult to read, but I didn't see any way to change the color of the text.
Having the option to change the theme of the entire app or dashboard would be very desirable as a feature, at least to me.

#36Very cool man. I could definitely see myself using this. Is there a mode to set new notes to tiling mode rather than down a list? Something similar to https://i3wm.org/

#37How do you search stuff you've save?

#38Nice application, thanks.
There really needs to be a way to change the order of to-do's.
What happens to deleted to-do's? Gone forever?
Also CodeOwl combined with graphviz (as shown here- https://zwischenzugs.com/2017/12/18/project-management-as-co...) would be very cool- to-do list -> dependency diagram with colours updating as items are checked off...

#39Looks nice, but I'd save everything to local storage when it's not saved to the server. I expected it to be still there when I press F5.
Also, when you are dragging an item, make sure it get's the highers z-index, you don't want the tile you are holding to appear below another one while dragging.

Also, just implement a give-up after 3-5 seconds. If a sever can't respond in that time, why bother (not worth the resources).
