Checklist Maker: Printable Checklists with Headings

Make a checklist by typing one item per line, with # for section headings, then tick items off on screen or print the list with empty boxes. Your list and ticks are saved in this browser.

Checklist Maker: Printable Checklists with Headings: Each line becomes an item with a checkbox, and lines starting with # become headings that group the items below them; dashes and bullets pasted from other lists are removed. The printout has the title, headings, and empty boxes, without the rest of the page. Runs 100% locally in your browser with zero server file uploads.

On the day

Tick items on screen, or print the list with empty boxes to tick by hand. The list and your ticks are saved in this browser; editing an item's text clears its tick.

Why checklists work

Checklists catch steps that are easy to forget under pressure. Pilots and surgeons use them for routine but critical steps, and Atul Gawande's The Checklist Manifesto describes how a short surgical checklist cut complications.

Repeating jobs

For chores that come back every week, a chore chart assigns them to people and days.

How to use it

  1. Give the list a title and type the items, one per line.
  2. Start a line with # to make a heading.
  3. Tick items on screen, or print the checklist.
