The devil is in the details. I've been working on something similar (looks very different, but similar goals), and I am on my 4th re-write :)

I've worked on some very complex software projects, but creating a simple task/habit tracker that is actually useful has been more difficult than I expected.

Yep, I think this is the fifth? I've lost track honestly. I do use it daily, but I know I can do a lot better. The next one probably will not have any noticeable Trello/kanban heritage.

I will say for those working on their own, I started to make breakthroughs on this when I stopped worrying about what other people might want for the eventual open-sourcing or SaaS and just made exactly what I wanted to.
