Our verdict on Reinschrift

Reinschrift is an open-source to-do application built around plain-text Markdown task storage. It suits solo users and small teams who want local files, Linux access, and a task system that can also run through the web. Its native GNOME desktop app, command-line client, web app, and mobile PWA provide several ways to work with the same task approach. Projects, contexts, due dates, recurring tasks, search, filtering, sorting, and the My Day planning view cover the core workflow.

The product’s strongest distinction is its open, file-based model. Storing tasks in Markdown keeps the underlying content readable and portable, while WebDAV and Nextcloud synchronization connect the workflow to self-hosted or file-sync environments. Voice input is available through Whisper or the Web Speech API, and optional AI task parsing can use Ollama or an LLM. That combination gives technically comfortable Linux users a broad set of input and organization options without moving away from a plain-text foundation.

Reinschrift is available as open-source software with a free plan, and its published product details describe desktop, self-hosted, and mobile-PWA deployment options. The trade-off is that the experience favors users willing to manage local files, synchronization, and, where relevant, web deployment. AI parsing also depends on configuring Ollama or another LLM. Choose Reinschrift if Markdown storage, Linux support, and control over synchronization matter more than a polished hosted-service workflow; choose another to-do app if you want a native mobile application or prefer not to manage technical components.
