[Bug 🐞]: drag-and-drop rearrangement of tasks doesn't work correctly on macOS

Bug Title 🐞

Describe the bug
On macOS, when trying to rearrange a task list by dragging-and-dropping tasks the entire window moves instead of the task. It looks like this happens because the "body" CSS selector in browser.css contains the property -webkit-app-region: drag;, which from my understanding is macOS-specific.

Reproduction Steps

1. Build and run on macOS
2. Try to drag-and-drop a task, the entire window will move instead of the task

Expected Behavior
The task moves and the window stays in place.

Screenshots
N/A

Technical Info (please complete the following information)

• OS: macOS
• Kuro Version: 8.1.5 (build from master branch)

Additional context
I know that this project isn't aiming to support macOS, so I totally understand if this isn't high-priority but this was a problem that I ran into so it may be of help to others too.

I've got a simple fix in my own fork: master...rv3392:kuro:rv3392/macos-drag-fix. The removal of -webkit-app-region: drag; should fix the bug itself, and then the change of titleBarStyle: "hiddenInset" to titleBarStyle: "default" adds a titlebar for macOS so that the window can still be moved.

From my testing it looks like the code causing the problem and the subsequent fix has no impact on Linux functionality (to be clear, I've only tested on Ubuntu) where a separate titlebar is already present regardless of the titlebarStyle and the -webkit-app-region: drag; property doesn't do anything. I'm guessing the original code was used in Ao for a cleaner UI on macOS and never had any intended function on Linux or Windows, but has gone stale over the last few years.

Let me know if this is a change you would consider and I will be happy to open a PR! Thanks :)!

[Question❓]: How to install Kuro from package `kuro-8.1.7.pacman`?

How to install Kuro from package kuro-8.1.7.pacman?❓

Also, the fact that this package is shipped like that, does that mean that we shouldn't do yay -S kuro anymore?

Thanks a lot.

how to launch snap app?

I installed kuro-desktop as a snap on Kubuntu 22.04
sudo snap install kuro-desktop --edge
then I logged out and back in
but I can't figure out how to launch it. It does not appear in list of installed apps, and does not launch by entering kuro-desktop in terminal. I can't locate a executable file or .desktop file.

Dark Theme > Subtask UI needs improvements

Describe the bug
The subtask experience needs some improvements to be compatible with the dark themes

Screenshots

[Feature 🚀]: Add Monochrome System Tray Icon

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Kuro currently uses a colored system tray icon which doesn't match with a lot of system trays.

Describe the solution you'd like
A monochrome black / white icon would match more.

[Bug 🐞]: Launch Minimized doesn't work

Launch Minimized doesn't work 🐞

Describe the bug
Despite "Launch Minimized" being turned on, the application shows its window on startup.

Reproduction Steps

1. Turn on Launch Minimized
2. Completely Quit & Exit Kuro
3. Run Kuro (i.e. run "kuro" in command line)

Expected Behavior
The window should not be shown and the system tray icon should appear.

Technical Info (please complete the following information)

• OS: EndeavorOS
• Kuro Version: 8.1.4

Additional context
Note: This is probably because I am using a tiling window manager (bspwm) which does not support minimized windows.

Can't sign out from the context menu

Currently there's no way to sign out of your current account unless you delete home/{user}/.config/Kuro and restart the app.

[Feature 🚀]: Width of app window

The minimum width of the app window is still pretty wide. Would be nice to make the window thinner

[Question❓]: I do not anymore a i386 .deb build, why ?

Question Title❓

I repack the .deb file for Slackware at https://slackbuilds.org and provided for previous release both x86_64 and i386 versions (both flavour exist for the distrib).

Is it a technical limit that has been reached ? A burden to keep both ?

Thanks for your lights.

And thank you for your work providing kuro !

[Feature 🚀]: Custom Themes

Feature

It would be nice to allow users to define a custom theme, similar to the excellent Dracula theme. This would allow me to, for example, slightly toggle the colors without modifying the source to create a Breeze-like theme for KDE.

Solution

I can imagine one of 2 solutions:

• Use JSON to dictate color settings, which is then converted to CSS.
• Allow users to directly modify CSS (more advanced).

JSON

{
  "bg-primary": "#282a36",
  "bg-secondary": "#333648",
  "bg-tertiary": "#20274d",
  "bg-hover": "#3b3e51",
  "bg-hover-secondary": "#474c68",
  "bg-hover-tertiary": "#222d6e",
  "bg-active": "#333855",
  "bg-active-secondary": "#3f456b",
  "bg-active-tertiary": "#2d366c",
  "bg-separator": "#44475a33",
  "bg-border": "#44475a33",
  "bg-scrollbar": "#44475a33",
  "font-color-primary": "#ccc",
  "font-color-secondary": "#f8f8f2",
  "font-color-tertiary": "#fff",
  "font-color-warning": "#ff5555",
  "font-color-brand": "#007262",
  "font-color-disable": "#a19f9d",
  "bg-ms-planner": "#50fa7b",
  "bg-ms-one-note": "#bd93f9",
  "bg-ms-excel": "#50fa7b",
  "bg-ms-word": "#6272a4",
  "bg-ms-power-point": "#ff5555",
  "bg-ms-teams": "#bd93f9",
  "red": "#ff5555",
  "blue": "#288be1",
  "skyblue": "#8be9fd",
  "purple": "#bd93f9",
  "green": "#50fa7b"
}

CSS (Identical to the Dracula Theme)

html.dracula-mode {
  --bg-primary: #282a36 !important;
  --bg-secondary: #333648 !important;
  --bg-tertiary: #20274d !important;
  --bg-hover: #3b3e51 !important;
  --bg-hover-secondary: #474c68 !important;
  --bg-hover-tertiary: #222d6e !important;
  --bg-active: #333855 !important;
  --bg-active-secondary: #3f456b !important;
  --bg-active-tertiary: #2d366c !important;
  --bg-separator: #44475a33 !important;
  --bg-border: #44475a33 !important;
  --bg-scrollbar: #44475a33 !important;
  --font-color-primary: #ccc !important;
  --font-color-secondary: #f8f8f2 !important;
  --font-color-tertiary: #fff !important;
  --font-color-warning: #ff5555 !important;
  --font-color-brand: #007262 !important;
  --font-color-disable: #a19f9d !important;
  --bg-ms-planner: #50fa7b !important;
  --bg-ms-one-note: #bd93f9 !important;
  --bg-ms-excel: #50fa7b !important;
  --bg-ms-word: #6272a4 !important;
  --bg-ms-power-point: #ff5555 !important;
  --bg-ms-teams: #bd93f9 !important;
  --red: #ff5555;
  --blue: #288be1;
  --skyblue: #8be9fd;
  --purple: #bd93f9;
  --green: #50fa7b;
}

Validation

If we're using a JSON file, it's probably a good idea to sanitize the input using the Javascript CSS.supports('color', color) (if supported by the current Electron version, I haven't used Electron). If the color is supported, you can write the property to the CSS file using a template.

This prevents anything weird like:

> CSS.supports('color', 'red');
true
> CSS.supports('color', 'red; #id { background-color: blue; }');
false

Logic

The logic (in valid Javacript) could be:

let themeString = '...';
let theme = JSON.parse(themeString);
if (Object.values(theme).every(color => CSS.supports('color', color)) {
  // We've validated our colors, so we should be good.
  const cssTheme = `
    --bg-primary: ${theme['bg-primary']} !important;
    --bg-secondary: ${theme['bg-secondary']} !important;
    --bg-tertiary: ${theme['bg-tertiary']} !important;
    --bg-hover: ${theme['bg-hover']} !important;
    --bg-hover-secondary: ${theme['bg-hover-secondary']} !important;

    --bg-active-secondary: ${theme['bg-active-secondary']} !important;
    --bg-active-tertiary: ${theme['bg-active-tertiary']} !important;
    --bg-separator: ${theme['bg-separator']}33 !important;
    --bg-border: ${theme['bg-border']}33 !important;
    --bg-scrollbar: ${theme['bg-scrollbar']}33 !important;
    --font-color-primary: ${theme['font-color-primary']}mportant;
    --font-color-secondary: ${theme['font-color-secondary']} !important;
    --font-color-tertiary: ${theme['font-color-tertiary']}mportant;
    --font-color-warning: ${theme['font-color-warning']} !important;
    --font-color-brand: ${theme['font-color-brand']} !important;
    --font-color-disable: ${theme['font-color-disable']} !important;
    --bg-ms-planner: ${theme['bg-ms-planner']} !important;
    --bg-ms-one-note: ${theme['bg-ms-one-note']} !important;
    --bg-ms-excel: ${theme['bg-ms-excel']} !important;
    --bg-ms-word: ${theme['bg-ms-word']} !important;
    --bg-ms-power-point: ${theme['bg-ms-power-point']} !important;
    --bg-ms-teams: ${theme['bg-ms-teams']} !important;
    --red: ${theme['red']};
    --blue: ${theme['blue']};
    --skyblue: ${theme['skyblue']};

[Feature 🚀]: Use system electron for Arch Linux

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently the pacman package ships an electron, which violates Electron package guidelines of Arch Linux and wastes space.
Describe the solution you'd like

• Only include kuro.asar and shell wrapper in the Arch package, name it as kuro-bin and submit the package to AUR. (It seems that it runs properly on https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/electron/)
• Make the kuro package in AUR be built from source.

[Feature 🚀]: AUR package for Arch Linux

Hello. I seem to find the .pacman file which could be installed locally by using pacman -U. But cant seem to find a AUR package. Installing and from AUR would be very much easier.
I think modifying the ao pkgbuild slightly would do the job. Just need to create the AUR package.

[Question❓]: CalDav support

Question Title❓

Hello, Thanks for making a good todo app. Ironically todo list is the first app, that devs make but we don't have a good version of that.
I have two questions though:

1. Does the app supports CalDav? I want to sync it with my selfhosted Nextcloud.
2. Does the app has API? I want to make an automation for myself.

Thanks again for maintaining the app.

Windows build

Discussed in #63

^{Originally posted by sergeevabc November 1, 2022}
Dear @davidsmorais, I'm Windows 7 x64 user coming from AO 6.9. As you see, that repo has setup.exe, however yours repo has none. Perhaps you could be so kind to generate one for Kuro? Even .zip with binary contents would be fine.

Dark Theme > Active List Emoji Background

Describe the bug
List emoji & icon background is white when the list is active

Unfork the Repository

It is currently impossible to search forked repositories on Github, and since Kuro is now sufficiently different than AO, it's probably a good idea to unfork the repository and have it as its own repository. The process to unfork is described here.

[Bug 🐞]: Wrong theme on notifications

Bug Title 🐞

Describe the bug
Notifications are white and text on them are light grey (hard to see). They also appear behind the new task input bar. I don't know if this is some strange interaction with KDE or if this is happening everywhere.

Expected Behavior
Notifications to follow selected theme in Kuro and to appear over the new task input bar.

Screenshots
Here you can see a screenshot of the issue. I have blurred out the text of the task/notification, but you should get the idea.

Question about the installing using the index.md

I am trying to install this program to use Microsoft To do on my Ubuntu System (I am new to Linux)
The index.md instructs me to "simply run yarn release". Do I have to run this in the Terminal like the other instructions? Because this gives me an Error.
00h00m00s 0/0: : ERROR: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'release'

"yarn release.nix" which actually finds the file doesn't seem to know what to do with # icons and # desktop ...
00h00m00s 0/0: : ERROR: Syntax error: unknown step: # icons

How did you set up this system and how do you run the application?

[Feature 🚀]: Focus mode or "I'm working on"

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I'm working on some task and go to the task list I see other tasks, think about them and lost focus.

Describe the solution you'd like

• Add button to the left of each task: 🔝 "Start working on".
• When the button is pressed:
  • current task changes color to very contrast
  • font of this task become bold
  • Kuro's window captions changes to the name of this task
  • new button icon and label changes to 🛑 "Stop working on"

Optionally:

• timer starts counting time of running task is active
• desktop notifications starts reminding about this task every minute (tunable)
  The code example for kde desktop manager:

while true; do
        end=`date +%s`
        runtime=$((end-start))
        kdialog --icon "$ICON" --title 'Keep focus on:' --passivepopup "$TASK[$runtime]" "$timeout1"
        sleep "$((timeout1+timeout2))"
done

• after pressing stop button, task renames: At the begining we add time spent in square brackets, like that: [1m:38s]

Additional context
Here is the chrome browser plugin that do very similar things:
https://github.com/alatyshau/maxdone-chrome-extension
But for another task management system MaxDone. (The project is dead now).

This feature will help to keep focus on.

[Bug 🐞]: GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye.

GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye. 🐞

Describe the bug
I'm running this on Fedora 35. The RPM and AppImage fail to launch. Passing in --no-sandbox to the AppImage resolves the issue as mentioned here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68874940/gpu-process-isnt-usable-goodbye

The full output is as follows:

> ./Kuro.8.1.0.AppImage 
(node:18898) electron: The default of contextIsolation is deprecated and will be changing from false to true in a future release of Electron.  See https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/23506 for more information
[18898:0511/093447.164398:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(445)] GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye.
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

Reproduction Steps

1. Download the RPM. I downloaded kuro-8.1.0.x86_64.rpm
2. Install rpm: sudo rpm -i kuro-8.1.0.x86_64.rpm
3. Launched Kuro. App Icon appears in my task tray, then disappears.
4. Download Applmage. I downloaded Kuro.8.1.0.AppImage
5. Run chmod +x Kuro.8.1.0.AppImage
6. Run ./Kuro.8.1.0.AppImage
7. Kuro fails to launch with the output specified above.
8. Run ./Kuro.8.1.0.AppImage --no-sandbox
9. Kuro launches successfully.

Expected Behavior
Installing the RPM should work on RHEL based distributions, including Fedora 35.

Technical Info

• OS: Fedora 35
• Kuro Version: 8.1.0

Additional context
I'm unsure if this is an issue with Electron or Fedora. I've had this happen with another AppImage I use - see the pomotroid issue here if you're curious. Temporary solution is fine for the time being. If there is a installation step I'm missing, please feel free to let me know.

[Feature 🚀]: Open Multiple Windows at Once

Problem:
Can't have multiple windows of Kuro open at the same time.

Often I will be moving items from one list to another and sometimes it is difficult to remember if the item I am moving already exists in the other list. When this happens I have to open the sidebar and switch to the other list, and then switch back to the original list to move the item.

Request:
Allow us to open multiple windows with Kuro, and have a different list in each open window simultaneously.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

[Bug 🐞]: Syncing Frequently Pauses

Bug Title 🐞

Describe the bug
When using Kuro for a long period, it frequently says "Your changes were saved but syncing is paused. Refresh this page to sync your changes." However, clicking refresh does not sync the changes, and only logging out and logging back in (or rebooting) seems to refresh syncing.

Reproduction Steps

1. Use Kuro for a long period (I believe on multiple devices as well).

Expected Behavior
Syncing should not break, even over long sessions.

Screenshots

Technical Info (please complete the following information)

• OS: Fedora 36
• Kuro Version: 8.1.0

[Question❓]: System date & time settings not used by Kuro

System date & time settings not used by Kuro❓

I'm not sure whether this qualifies as a bug, so I'm gonna post it as a question.
It appears that the app doesn't take into account system date & time settings when selecting "Pick a date (time)" for due date or reminders for tasks.
Specifically, my system (Debian) is set to 24-hr clock and week starting with Mon. While in the app itself I get AM/PM and mini-calendar week starting on Sun.

I couldn't find any options to change those settings within the app itself, so either the app can't properly read system settings or it defaults to US date/time format and there aren't exclusive settings to change it.
I'm running Kuro as an AppImage and otherwise haven't experienced any issues with the rest of the functionality.
The date/time issue is slightly annoying, but not the end of the world.

[Bug 🐞]: Unexpected end of JSON input on startup

Unexpected end of JSON input on startup 🐞

Describe the bug
When attempting to launch the app, I get a JavaScript error and the process terminates.

Reproduction Steps
Just starting the app is enough to cause the crash, there is nothing I can do to prevent it.

Expected Behavior
I would like it if the app started as it did just a few days ago and I suspect starting up correctly would be the desired behaviour 😀

Technical Info (please complete the following information)

• OS: Arch Linux (full update just a few moments ago)
• Kuro Version: 8.1.0

Additional context
I have tried to reinstall kuro and to delete the configuration files under ~/.config, both did nothing to help the problem. Whether I start from Gnome or directly through the terminal does not matter, the following error message is displayed:
