'''Tracks''' is a web-based project management application that's based on a Ruby on Rails framework. The design of Tracks is significantly influenced by a "getting things done" methodology, introduced by author David Allen, and the GTD Todo application. That methodology was introduced to the application in the form of three main components: next actions, contexts, and projects.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://getontracks.org/manual/ |title=Manual - Introduction - Tracks |publisher=getontracks.org |accessdate=10 March 2012}}</ref>
