Who created WingTask and Why?

Hi,

My name is Tim Case I’m an American and Thai developer who has spent most of my career working on Ruby and Ruby on Rails apps. I was born in Japan (though I’m not Japanese), and I lived for 10 years in Brazil (Florianópolis). The past 11 years I’ve spent living mostly in Bangkok (Thonglor and Ekamai). I speak casual to fluent Brazilian Portuguese and Thai at a restaurant and taxi level. I grew up in Southern California and these days split my year between Los Angeles and Bangkok.

A few years ago I had a crisis when I realized that of all the software and apps I worked on professionally, I never actually used any of them. I felt something important was lost if I didn’t actually use any of the apps I was creating. I was on the road to building my own todo app (because what programmer doesn’t?) when I came across Taskwarrior and realized it solved the todo problem better than I was. At that point I resolved to work on a mobile and web interface to Taskwarrior in addition to providing a sync server.
