How to Make a To-Do List Online - Free and No Sign-Up
A to-do list tool keeps a simple checklist right in your browser. Type a task and press Enter or click Add, tick items off as you finish them, and delete the ones you no longer need. The list saves locally, so it is still there after you reload the page - no app install and no sign-up.

Where your list is saved
The list lives in your browser's local storage, so it is still there when you reload the page or come back later on the same device and browser. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account to create. Clearing this site's browser data removes the list.
