# Today and tomorrow

The daily note is a canvas per person per day. It opens with the tasks due that day, overdue ones
first, and collects whatever is captured during the day beside them. One place to start the day and to
look back on it.

## What you can do

- Open today's note from My Stuff > Today.
- See tasks due today in a Due today column. On today's note overdue tasks come first, each card saying
  how late it is. "Nothing due." shows when there are none.
- Keep the note current: tasks that fall due later join the Due today column when the note is opened
  again. A task removed from the note is not brought back.
- Move between days with the arrows, the date picker, or the Today and Tomorrow buttons.
- Work on the note as on any canvas: notes, lines, shapes, Make task. See [Canvas](/docs/manual/canvas/canvas.md).
- Find past notes in Docs: filter the list to Daily notes.

## How to

1. Open My Stuff > Today.
2. Previous day and Next day (the arrow buttons) step one day. The date field (Go to day) jumps to any
   date.
3. Today returns to today. Tomorrow opens tomorrow's note.
4. An older day that has no note shows empty. Press Start note to create it.

## Limits

- Today, later days, and the two days before today are created when opened. An older day is created only
  by Start note, so browsing back through the calendar writes nothing.
- The day is the note's date in the Europe/London zone. There is no per-person time zone.
- Due today lists open tasks assigned to the note's owner, plus unassigned tasks the owner created.
- The daily note is private to its owner.
