# Show TODO and other notes in your Rails app

> Did you know you can show all TODOs/OPTIMIZE/FIXME in your rails app with rails notes?

Did you know you can show all TODOs/OPTIMIZE/FIXME in your rails app with *rails notes*?

```shell
$ rails notes
app/helpers/users_helper.rb:
  * [10] [TODO] Use ActiveSupport extension methods for Date/Time

app/services/slack.rb:
  * [20] [OPTIMIZE] Replace library with core Net::HTTP
```

You can even focus with *notes:todo* etc.:

```shell
$ rails notes:todo
app/helpers/users_helper.rb:
  * [10] [TODO] Use ActiveSupport extension methods for Date/Time
```
