history
Project history and usage
taskwarrior-tui is a Rust terminal user interface for Taskwarrior that gives the text-mode task database a full-screen, keyboard-driven workflow.
Project history
The upstream repository was created in 2020 and describes the project as a terminal user interface for Taskwarrior. Its documentation centers on vim-like navigation, live filters, task add/delete/complete/log actions, multi-selection, tab completion, and reuse of Taskwarrior colors.
The README documents an important compatibility transition: taskwarrior-tui v0.25.4 is the last release that supports Taskwarrior v2.x as a backend, while Taskwarrior v3.x may break features in unexpected ways.
Adoption history
The official repository metadata shows a few thousand stars and more than one hundred forks by 2026, and the input package metadata lists package-manager availability in Homebrew, Alpine, MacPorts, Nix, and Arch. That combination marks it as a widely noticed terminal companion in the Taskwarrior ecosystem rather than a one-off script.
How it is used
Users install taskwarrior-tui when they already keep tasks in Taskwarrior but want a persistent terminal interface for filtering, editing, completing, and reviewing tasks. The tool relies on Taskwarrior itself and uses Taskwarrior's .taskrc for configuration.
Why package nerds care
The package is notable because it packages a modern Rust TUI around a long-running Unix CLI. It appeals to package nerds who prefer terminal-native workflows but want discoverability and multi-select operations without leaving the Taskwarrior data model.
