FKNotes.nvim brings powerful, inline note-taking and task management directly into your Neovim workflow. It combines the convenience of todo-comments.nvim with a persistent task database and a modern UI, all tightly integrated with the FKvim ecosystem.

✨ Features

• Flexible Inline Syntax: Capture tasks and notes naturally with @fknotes.
• Smart Parsing: Recognizes priorities, due dates, and tags in any order.
• Relative Due Dates: Set deadlines with intuitive formats like -2d (2 days from now), -3w (3 weeks), or -1m (1 month).
• Flexible Priorities: Specify priority with @high or as a tag like #medium.
• Granular Highlighting: todo-comments.nvim-style highlighting for each part of your note.
• Persistent Storage: Inline tasks are saved to a JSON file and won't be lost when you close the buffer.
• UI for Management: A clean and modern UI to browse, create, and manage tasks and notebooks.
• Gutter Signs & Diagnostics: Get instant visual feedback for your notes in the sign column and diagnostics panel.
• Theme Aware: Dynamically adapts to your colorscheme for a native look and feel.

📝 Usage & Syntax

Inline Task Syntax

The power of FKNotes lies in its flexible inline syntax. Start a line with @fknotes followed by a TAG and a colon.

@fknotes <TAG>: <Your Title> [@priority | #priority] [-<date>] [#tags...]

• TAG: TODO, FIX, NOTE, PERF, WARN, HACK, TASK. This is required.
• Title: The description of your task.
• Priority: Optional. Use either @<level> or #<level> (e.g., @high, #medium).
• Due Date: Optional. Use an absolute date (-YYYY-MM-DD) or a relative one (-2d, -3w, -1m, -1y).
• Tags: Optional. Add as many #tags as you like.

The metadata (priority, date, tags) can be in any order after the title.

Examples

-- A simple TODO
-- @fknotes TODO: Implement the new feature

-- A complex task with metadata in a different order
-- @fknotes FIX: Bug in the API response -2d #fkvim @high

-- A note with a relative date and a tag
-- @fknotes NOTE: Review the documentation -1w #docs

-- A performance task with a priority tag
-- @fknotes PERF: Optimise database queries #high #db
