Ta-Da! v0.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: January 11, 2026
Status: Feature-Complete MVP ✅

🎉 Welcome to Ta-Da!

Ta-Da! is an open-source personal lifelogging Progressive Web App (PWA) that helps you notice and celebrate your life. Rather than prescribing what you should do, Ta-Da! helps you observe what you actually did — turning the anxiety-inducing todo list into a celebration of accomplishment.

"I don't believe in to-do lists. I believe in done lists."
— David Allen (paraphrased)
