Linux

OpenTodoList is available for Linux in several formats. Choose the one that fits your distribution and preferred update workflow.

Supported Formats

  • Flathub: Install from Flathub if your distribution supports Flatpak.
  • AppImage: Download the AppImage from GitHub Releases if you prefer a portable release artifact from the project.
  • Snap: Install from Snapcraft if your distribution supports Snap packages.
  • AUR: Install from the AUR if you use Arch Linux or an Arch-based distribution.

First Run

After installation, open OpenTodoList and create a library. You can start with a local library and add synchronization later.

Continue with Getting Started.

Wayland: Drag & Drop interaction issues

On Linux systems using Wayland, OpenTodoList may show reduced hover or interaction behavior after performing drag & drop operations, for example when reordering items. This can make the application appear unresponsive until another click is performed.

Workaround

As a workaround, OpenTodoList can be started using the X11 backend:

opentodolist -platform xcb

For AppImage builds:

./OpenTodoList.AppImage -platform xcb

This workaround restores the expected interaction behavior.
