Deploy and Host Tasks.md on Railway

Tasks.md is a lightweight, self-hosted kanban board where every task is stored as a Markdown file on disk. Instead of a database, it uses folders and .md files to represent columns and cards, making your tasks transparent, portable, and easy to back up or version-control.

About Hosting Tasks.md

Hosting Tasks.md is intentionally simple. The application runs as a single web server process that reads and writes Markdown files from a local directory. There is no database to provision, no background workers, and no external services required. On Railway, Tasks.md can be deployed as a single container that binds to one port and uses a persistent volume to store task files. Configuration is minimal and optional, allowing you to deploy with sensible defaults and start using the board immediately after launch.

Common Use Cases

Personal task and to-do management
Lightweight kanban boards for small teams
Developer-friendly task tracking using Markdown files

Dependencies for Tasks.md Hosting

Tasks.md application container
Persistent file storage (Railway Volume)

Deployment Dependencies

Tasks.md GitHub repository: https://github.com/BaldissaraMatheus/Tasks.md
Docker image (used by the template): https://hub.docker.com/r/baldissaramatheus/tasks.md

Implementation Details

Tasks are stored directly on disk as Markdown files. Each column corresponds to a directory, and each task is a .md file inside that directory. Mounting a persistent volume ensures tasks survive restarts and redeploys.
