Feature Request: Integrate Vikunja Open Source Task Management into Applications

[ghost]

Introduction

Vikunja is an open-source, self-hostable to-do app that enables users to organize everything efficiently across all platforms. This feature request proposes the integration of Vikunja into the Heimdall dashboard, aiming to provide a seamless interface for users to monitor and manage their tasks and projects directly from Heimdall.

Background

Heimdall is an application dashboard that allows users to consolidate and access their web services and applications from a single interface. Integrating Vikunja with Heimdall would leverage the strengths of both platforms, offering users a comprehensive overview of their tasks alongside other services they use daily.

Proposal

The proposed integration involves displaying key information from Vikunja on the Heimdall dashboard, such as the number of outstanding tasks, upcoming deadlines, and brief project overviews. This feature would enhance user productivity by providing quick access to their task management within the Heimdall interface.

Key Benefits:

• Enhanced Productivity: Users can quickly glance at their to-do lists and project statuses, reducing the need to switch between different apps.
• Seamless Integration: By bringing Vikunja's task management features into the Heimdall dashboard, users can enjoy a more cohesive and integrated user experience.
• Customizable Display: Users could customize which Vikunja information is displayed on their Heimdall dashboard, tailoring the interface to their needs.

Technical Considerations:

• API Utilization: Vikunja's API will be key to fetching and displaying task and project information. Detailed documentation is available at Vikunja API Docs, which outlines how to access various data points that could be useful for display.
• User Configuration: Implementing a configuration interface within Heimdall to connect to the user's Vikunja account and select which data to display (e.g., tasks due today, specific projects, etc.).
