Support show localtime rather than utc?

[wrvsrx]

It's inconvinient to always use utc time to edit task. Can tasklite improve UX by supporting specify time using local time rather than utc?

Yeah, definitely a good idea. I didn't prioritize this yet, as I've all my clocks set to UTC and so it's not relevant for me. Also, I'm using https://github.com/ad-si/tu for specifying times, so I don't need to know the absolute value, but can simply use relative values.

Any help to implement it would be very appreciate! If you're interested, there is a little bit of documentation available: https://tasklite.org/development

I will try to add this feature when I have time.

I've installed tu but still have to specify specific time which could be, maybe, more convenient with the ability to specify concrete time expressed in my local timezone.

I'm currently migrating my TW database into Tasklite, The experience is very pleasant, but I was bitten with the UTC vs local time and have to rework them.

Besides using tu, I have e.g. schedule for garbage collection which has to be prepared by 7:00 AM local time and if I'm late someone will be angry at me. 😄

So, I'd highly appreciate the option to have an ability to specify absolute time (e.g. when not using `tu˙) as well as have Tasklite enable me to show tasks with the specified local time. 🙏
