\n\n## Tips\n\n### Shortcuts\n\nYou can create checkboxes even quicker using Slack's auto-complete:\n\n```\n:do   -\u003e  :todo\n:don  -\u003e  :todo_done\n:doi  -\u003e  :todo_doing\n:pau  -\u003e  :todo_pause\n:ca   -\u003e  :todo_cancel\n```\n\nCopy and paste is also an option!\n\n### Make a channel\n\nBecause you and your team will only be creating and updating a single message per day (or week) you may find it useful to create a dedicated channel, such as `#todos`, `#tasks`, `#today` or maybe `#shipped`.\n\nHaving a dedicated area for todo's means tasks won't get lost in a sea of other messages, and also provides a nice log of what got done and when.\n\n## Are you using Todo Emojis?\n\nLet me know!\n\n- [Tweet me](https://twitter.com/dave_stewart)\n- [Comment here](https://github.com/davestewart/todo-emojis/issues/1)\n- [Comment on Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/posts/todo-emojis)\n\n## Share this!\n\nIt would be great if you would upvote this on Product Hunt:\n\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.producthunt.com/posts/todo-emojis?utm_source=badge-featured\u0026utm_medium=badge\u0026utm_souce=badge-todo-emojis\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https://api.producthunt.com/widgets/embed-image/v1/featured.svg?post_id=268429\u0026theme=light\" alt=\"Todo Emojis - Slack emojis to create text-based to-do lists | Product Hunt\" style=\"width: 250px; height: 54px;\" width=\"250\" height=\"54\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\n\nTwitter is also another great place to share:\n\n- https://twitter.com/dave_stewart/status/1309861492007862277\n\nThanks :)\n\n## Artwork\n\nIf you want to modify the emojis, the original [Sketch](https://www.sketch.com/) file is in the [artwork](./artwork) folder, along with some alternate designs:\n\n![live example](./docs/sketch.png)\n\nThis work is licensed as [CC0 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0)](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/deed.en).\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdavestewart%2Ftodo-emojis","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdavestewart%2Ftodo-emojis","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdavestewart%2Ftodo-emojis/lists"}
