Tasks MD is a self-hosted, markdown file-based task management board. You can write cards as Markdown files. Create cards, lanes and tags in a modern and responsive interface. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Tasks MD on your Synology NAS using Docker & Portainer.

STEP 2
Install Portainer using my step by step guide. If you already have Portainer installed on your Synology NAS, skip this STEP. Attention: Make sure you have installed the latest Portainer version.
STEP 3
Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it tasksmd. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.
STEP 4
Now create two new folders inside the tasksmd folder that you have previously created at STEP 3 and name them config and tasks. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.
STEP 5
Log into Portainer using your username and password. On the left sidebar in Portainer, click on Stacks then + Add stack. Follow the instructions in the image below.
STEP 6
In the Name field type in tasksmd. Follow the instructions in the image below.
services:

Note: Before you paste the code above in the Web editor area below, change the value numbers for PUID and PGID with your own values. (Follow my step by step guide on how to do this.)
STEP 7
Scroll down on the page until you see a button called Deploy the stack. Click on it. Follow the instructions in the image below. The installation process can take up to a few minutes. It will depend on your Internet speed connection.
STEP 8
If everything goes right, you will see this message at the top right of your screen: “Success Stack successfully deployed“.
STEP 9
Go back to STEP 1 or you will deal with karma 🙂
STEP 10
The installation process can take up to a few seconds/minutes. It will depend on your Internet speed connection. Now open your browser and type in http://Synology-ip-address:3563 Add your cards. Follow the instructions in the image below.
