虽然他们可能在努力增加更多的支持，比如 [可以在 Linux 上安装微软 Edge 浏览器](https://itsfoss.com/microsoft-edge-linux/)，但对于一个价值几万亿美元的公司来说，这并不出色。


同样，微软的 To-Do 服务也是一个受欢迎的服务，它取代了 2020 年关闭的 Wunderlist。


如果你不知道的话，我们有很多 [可用于 Linux 的待办事项列表应用](https://itsfoss.com/to-do-list-apps-linux/)。因此，如果你想脱离微软 To-Do，你有选择。


微软 To-Do 是一个基于云的任务管理应用，让你从手机、桌面和网络组织你的任务。它可以在 Windows、Mac 和 Android 上下载。


那么，如果你不愿意使用网页浏览器而使用一个单独的应用，你在 Linux 上能做什么呢？


Kuro 派上用场了。


### Kuro：非官方的开源微软 To-Do 应用

Kuro 是一个非官方的开源应用，它为你提供了微软 To-Do 在 Linux 上的桌面体验和一些额外的功能。


它是 Ao 的一个分叉，Ao 是一个开源项目，逐渐成为它的解决方案。不幸的是，它不再积极维护了。所以，我遇到了一个似乎可以工作的新复刻。

Kuro 提供了一些额外的功能，可以让你在应用中切换主题，启用全局快捷方式等。


请注意，这个应用是相当新的，但有一个稳定版本可以试用。此外，开发者计划在不久的将来增加更多的主题和功能。


### Kuro 的功能


![kuro todo 1](/data/attachment/album/202207/05/151407ra7kufycug7oc7cg.png)


如果你倾向于使用微软的服务（如 Outlook），它的 To-Do 应用应该是组织你的任务的一个完美选择。你甚至可以标记电子邮件以创建任务。


使用 Kuro 桌面客户端，你可以得到一些可配置的功能，包括：


* 能够在启动时启动该程序。
* 获得一个系统托盘图标，以快速创建一个任务，搜索，或检查当天的可用列表。
* 启用全局快捷键。
* 切换可用的主题（深褐色、德古拉、黑色、深色）。
* 切换自动夜间模式，如果你不想不断改变主题。
* 隐藏托盘图标，如果你不需要它。
* 根据需要定制字体大小。

除了一些功能外，你还可以进入某些设置来启用/禁用电子邮件通知、删除前确认等，对待办事项应用体验的进行更多的控制。


总的来说，体验并不糟糕，但我在几分钟内注意到用户界面上有一些奇怪的图形问题。我不确定这是否是一个已知的问题。


### 在 Linux 中安装 Kuro


你可以从它的 [GitHub 发布页面](https://github.com/davidsmorais/kuro/releases) 找到基于 Ubuntu 的发行版的 .deb 包。


此外，你可以从 [Snap 商店](https://snapcraft.io/kuro-desktop) 中在你选择的任何 Linux 发行版上安装它。该软件包也可在 Arch Linux 发行版的 [AUR](https://itsfoss.com/aur-arch-linux/) 中获取。


开发者还提到，正在开发一个 Flatpak 软件包。所以，你可以关注它的 [GitHub 页面](https://github.com/davidsmorais/kuro)以了解更多相关信息。

OK
Microsoft says that they love Linux and open-source, but we still do not have native support for a lot of its products on Linux.

While they could be trying to add more support, like the ability to [install Microsoft Edge on Linux](https://itsfoss.com/microsoft-edge-linux/)– but it’s not excellent for a multi-trillion dollar company.

Similarly, Microsoft’s To-Do service is also a popular one, replacing Wunderlist as it was shut down in 2020.

In case you’re curious, we have a lot of [to-do list applications available for Linux](https://itsfoss.com/to-do-list-apps-linux/). So, if you want to switch away from Microsoft To-Do, you’ve got options.

Microsoft To-Do is a cloud-based task management application that lets you organize your tasks from your phone, desktop, and the web. It is available to download for Windows, Mac, and Android.

So, if you would rather not use the web browser but a separate application, what can you do on Linux?

Kuro to the rescue.

## Kuro: Unofficial Open-Source Microsoft To-Do App

![kuro todo](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/06/kuro-todo-800x507.png)

Kuro is an unofficial open-source application that provides you a desktop experience for Microsoft To-Do on Linux with some extra features.

It is a fork of Ao, which was an open-source project that stepped up to become a solution for it. Unfortunately, it is no longer being actively maintained. So, I came across a new fork for it that seems to get the job done.

![kuro todo options](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/06/kuro-todo-options-800x444.png)

Kuro provides some extra features that let you toggle themes, enable global shortcuts, and more from within the application.

Note that this application is fairly new, but a stable release is available to try. Furthermore, the developer plans to add more themes and features in the near future.

## Features of Kuro

If you tend to use Microsoft services (like Outlook), its To-Do app should be a perfect option to organize your tasks. You can even flag emails to create tasks out of it.

With Kuro desktop client, you get a few quick features to configure that include:

- Ability to launch the program on start.
- Get a system tray icon to quickly create a task, search, or check the available list for the day.
- Enable Global shortcut keys.
- Toggle available themes (Sepia, Dracula, Black, Dark).
- Toggle Auto Night mode, if you do not want to constantly change themes.
- Hide the tray icon, if you do not need it.
- Customize the font size as required.

In addition to some features, you can also access certain settings to enable/disable email notifications, confirm before deleting, and more such controls for the to-do app experience.

Overall, the experience wasn’t terrible, but I noticed some weird graphical glitches in the user interface for a few minutes. I am not sure if it is a known issue.

## Install Kuro in Linux

You can find the .deb package for Ubuntu-based distributions from its [GitHub releases section](https://github.com/davidsmorais/kuro/releases).

In either case, you can also get it from the [Snap store](https://snapcraft.io/kuro-desktop) for any Linux distribution of your choice. The package is also available in [AUR](https://itsfoss.com/aur-arch-linux/) for Arch Linux distributions.

The developer also mentions that a Flatpak package is on its way. So, you can keep an eye on its [GitHub page](https://github.com/davidsmorais/kuro) for more information on that.

Have you tried this already? Do you know of a better Microsoft to-do client for Linux? Let me know in the comments below.
