Replaces checkAndMigrateTasks, which never ran. Its guard compared currentDate, set from new Date() at init, against a fresh new Date() a few milliseconds later in onMount, so it was never true. Unfinished tasks have been sitting under old date keys ever since. The rule now: unfinished tasks from every prior day move into today, oldest first, ahead of whatever is already there. Completed ones are dropped and the old key deleted. It spans gaps, which the original never did even in theory, since it only looked one day back. now is a parameter. That's the part that makes the boundary testable.
Negotium - Minimalist To Do App
A beautiful, minimal to-do list application featuring smooth animations, intelligent date management, and a modern design that helps you stay organized and productive.
💭 Why Negotium?
While powerful tools like Trello and Vikunja excel at managing complex projects and long-term planning, sometimes you just need a simple, focused space for your daily tasks. That's why I built Negotium, a straightforward to-do list for today and tomorrow. Nothing more, nothing less.
Built with Svelte for speed and simplicity. No overwhelming features, no endless project boards, no complexity. Just a clean interface for your daily workflow.
