To-Do Changelog Manager

A VS Code extension that helps you manage to-do tasks and project changelogs directly from dedicated side-panel views, keeping your development workflow organized and your release notes always up to date.

The extension provides two visual interfaces: one for managing To-Do items and another for building and maintaining a structured CHANGELOG.md.

✨ Features

📝 To-Do Manager View

Manage your development tasks without leaving VS Code:

• ➕ Add new to-do items
• ✏️ Edit existing tasks
• 🗑️ Delete tasks
• ✅ Mark tasks as completed
• 📌 Organize all tasks in a dedicated Tree View
• ⚡ Perform actions using toolbar buttons and context menus

📄 Changelog Manager View

Create and maintain changelogs visually and consistently:

• ➕ Add new versions

• 🧩 Add entries to predefined changelog sections:

  • Additions
  • Changes
  • Fixes
  • Deprecations
  • Removals
  • Security Changes

• ✏️ Edit or 🗑️ remove individual entries

• 🔄 Automatically keeps the latest version at the top

• 🧹 Omits empty sections for cleaner output

• 📁 Persists all changes directly into CHANGELOG.md

The changelog interface and structure are inspired by https://github.com/tobiaswaelde/vscode-simple-changelog and implemented with custom logic and extended functionality.

🧭 User Interface

The extension adds two sidebar views to VS Code:

• To-Do Manager
• Changelog Manager

Each view includes:

• Toolbar buttons
• Context menu actions
• Real-time updates

No command-only workflow — everything is visual and intuitive.
