ogrady / EasyChores

Purpose

Small utility to note down repeatable household chores and assign them to a person. While sites like habitica are awesome, they are hard to be run locally and lack some functionality I needed (integration into Home Assistant, load balancing, multi user view). The use case is to run this too locally as web page and integrating it into Home Assistant.

Features

• adding tasks as templates
• adding tasks from template
• assigning people to tasks
• listing open tasks
• repeatedly creating tasks in defined intervals
• automatically assining tasks based on a load balancing algorithm
• dockerize
