    <p>Foreground is an easy to use task manager app. Designed to be beautiful,

    simple and unintrusive, Foreground helps you know what needs done without

    getting in your way. Foreground also supports syncing with <a

    href="https://taskwarrior.org/">Taskwarrior</a> servers.</p>

    <h2 id="syncing">Syncing</h2>

    <p>To set up sync, add your taskwarrior server credentials (provided by your

    taskd server or a service like inthe.am or FreeCinc) to the settings menu, and

    enable sync using the toggle. A test will be run to check if the settings are

    valid, and the enable will stick if the config works. You can also configure

    automatic syncing in this menu, or click the sync button on the main page to

    start a sync.</p>

    <h2 id="implementation-details">Implementation Details</h2>

    <p>Unlike existing Taskwarrior apps for Android, Foreground does not run the

    taskwarrior binary inside, but rather implements a taskwarrior sync client.

    This allows for greater device compatibility and simplifies UI development but

    it can cause issues when syncing if not done correctly.</p>

    <h2 id="current-limitations">Current Limitations</h2>

    <p>Foreground currently supports most features of Taskwarrior. Notable

    exceptions involve handling of recurring events and display/editing of User

    Defined Attributes. Recurring event instances created by other clients will be

    shown by Foreground, but Foreground does not create recurring event instances

    of its own at this time. User Defined attributes are preserved internally but

    are not yet exposed for viewing or editing. These limitations will be resolved

    in future releases.</p>
