Feature request: Use trello for backend

Interface is great but syncing between devices would make it even better. This seems like it could be done relatively easily if Trello was used as a backend.

This is definitely something I'll look into. I hadn't thought of using Trello quite so directly (I was just going to add an import feature), but if their API allows it this could work well.

Stage 1 of Lots complete: you can now import a Trello board.

It's using the API, so that's a good start. It's a really well thought out API, so it was very easy to get working.

Pushing up changes will be a bit trickier as there's the possibility someone else might be making changes to the board - and keeping them in sync would be nightmarish. But might be it just has to have the proviso that you should only use it on boards no one else is using.

I wonder what back ends might give the correct merging behaviour? Though that's a whole other project, I suppose.

I just add my taskell file to Git, which works nicely. But you have to remember to push your commits.
