<h3>GNOME To Do</h3>
<p><a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Todo/">GNOME To Do</a> is a personal task manager designed specifically for the GNOME desktop (Fedora Workstation’s default desktop). When comparing GNOME To Do with some others in this list, it is has a range of neat features.</p>
<p>GNOME To Do provides organization of tasks by lists, and the ability to assign a colour to that list. Additionally, individual tasks can be assigned due dates & priorities, and notes for each task. Futhermore, GNOME To Do has extensions, allowing even more features, including support for <a href="http://todotxt.org/">todo.txt</a> and syncing with online services such as <a href="https://en.todoist.com/">todoist</a>.</p>

<p>Install GNOME To Do either by using the Software application, or using the following command in the Terminal:</p>
<pre>sudo dnf install gnome-todo</pre>
<h3>Getting things GNOME!</h3>
<p>Before GNOME To Do existed, the go-to application for tracking tasks on GNOME was <a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/GTG">Getting things GNOME!</a> This older-style GNOME application has a multiple window layout, allowing you to show the details of multiple tasks at the same time. Rather than having lists of tasks, GTG has the ability to add sub-tasks to tasks and even to sub-tasks. GTG also has the ability to add due dates and start dates. Syncing to other apps and services is also possible in GTG via plugins.</p>

Additionally, Go For It! contains a simple timer to track how much time you have spent on the current task.</p>
