Open source alternatives to Todoist

You are a senior full-stack engineer. Build a minimal, self-hosted clone of Todoist (tasks) that I can run on my own VPS. Keep it small, production-sane, and easy to maintain.

## Goal
Replace my paid Todoist subscription for a single person or small team. MVP only — no billing, no enterprise features.

## Core features (build exactly these)
1. projects with ordered tasks, due dates and priorities
2. today and upcoming filtered views
3. labels and filters
4. subtasks and recurring due rules
5. comments and file attachments on tasks

## Stack
- Next.js (App Router, TypeScript) + Tailwind + shadcn/ui
- PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM (migrations checked in)
- Auth: Better Auth (email + password, optional GitHub OAuth); every query scoped to the signed-in user/workspace
- Background jobs (if needed): pg-boss on the same Postgres
- File storage (if needed): S3-compatible (MinIO container)

## Data model (start here, extend only if required)
User, Project, Task, Label, Filter, Comment, Attachment
Use UUID primary keys, createdAt/updatedAt on every table, and foreign keys with sensible ON DELETE behavior.

## Deliverables
1. Working app with the features above and a clean, minimal UI
2. docker-compose.yml with app, postgres, minio and Caddy (automatic HTTPS) — `docker compose up -d` must be all I run
3. .env.example documenting every variable; no secrets in code
4. Seed script with demo data
5. README: local dev, deploy on a fresh Ubuntu VPS (install Docker, set DNS A record, compose up), backups (pg_dump cron), and updating

## Rules
- Build in small steps; after each feature, run typecheck and the app, and fix errors before moving on
- Validate all input with zod; rate-limit public endpoints
- Write a few Playwright smoke tests for the main flow
- Ask me before adding any dependency beyond the stack above
