taskemon: CLI tool to print task tickets with a thermal printer.
taskemon is a very simple CLI tool that prints daily task tickets on a thermal printer, complete with a QR code that links to a random Pokémon as a "reward" for motivation. Basically, it's part of a process that helps you apply feedback loops to your tasks.
I was inspired by this article by Laurie Hérault which explains how understanding the science of video games helped them "cure" their procrastination—you're encouraged to read the article for a better understanding. The Pokémon part came from this comment by PaulHoule on Hacker News.
[!IMPORTANT] taskemon only supports the Epson TM-T20II thermal printer via USB right now, and was only tested on macOS Sequoia. Patches or PRs to support other models or networked printers are welcome!
