HyperList

Time is a notion that keeps us synchronized and organized, making it possible for the world we live in to function like clockwork. As an individual, your activities are heavily related to time and planning your activities is one of the steps you need to take in order to achieve success. In this regard, HyperList comes with a set of tools so you can easily create a list of things you need to do and cross them off when done.

After a short and uneventful setup process, the application greets you with its compact interface. This is all there is to it, and it's recommended to take your time and go through the basics to avoid getting stuck along the way. Designed as tasks, you can navigate through a set of examples, commands you can use, as well as the help manual.

Truth be told, the overall process seems easy enough, but even after a considerable amount of time learning to use it, processes still seem confusing and difficult to set up. There are no buttons whatsoever and you need to interact with your mouse, as well as keyboard hotkeys to trigger everything.

A small side panel is home to all tasks and events you create, while content is displayed in the rest of the space upon mouse click. It's enough to press a few buttons on your keyboard and write down each task name to get it ready.

These appear enlisted in a tree view that can have multiple sub-entries. However, there's no big difference between what the application can do and a basic text editor. Each task is equipped with a check box so you can tick it when finished.

Feature set ends here, with no implemented options to create a thorough schedule or even set reminders. You also need to save your progress each time, otherwise all is lost. The application is packed with potential and the visual design is simple, but short fused individuals will surely look away.

On an ending note, HyperList is not really what you'd expect from an application of its kind, taking more time to get acquainted with its features rather than providing a simple environment to plan your activities. It's based on a set of commands that aim to enhance practicality, but the poor overall implementation of features keeps it far from being a pro.
