Welcome to Shannon’s Duke

Is this your first time here?

Shannon’s Duke is Shannon’s implementation of Duke and it is an online to-do-list tracker.

In your to-do-list, you can categorise your tasks into these 3 types of tasks into your list:

• Todo [T] : These are tasks that are to be done, no deadlines, just at your own pace and at your own comfort. No pressure, just do it!
• Deadline [D] : These are tasks that have a deadline and must be done before a certain deadline.
• Event [E] : These are events that you need to be at and not just tasks to achieve.

These tasks added into the list can also be marked as done when completed. They are all automatically unmarked when first added into the list

• Unmarked Todo Task - [T][0] do laundry
• Marked Event Task - [E][1] attend seminar (at: school hall)

Here are some instructions and introductions to familiarise yourself with using this program.
