Feature Proposal: Allow the Creation of Standalone Tasks & Nested Projects

Open mononomori opened this issue 8 months ago â€Ē 0 comments

Current Issue:

Currently to create a task you must first be inside of a project, even though sometimes tasks can just be simple one-offs.

Top-Level
└── Buy milk
    └── Buy milk

In addition to this, with the lack of being able to make sub-projects within projects, some larger projects can get messy.

Top-Level
└── Plan birthday
    ├── Invite friends
    ├── Buy decorations
    ├── Make cake - Buy ingredients
    ├── Make cake - Bake the cake
    └── Make cake - Frost the cake

Feature Proposal:

  1. Allow standalone tasks at top-level.

Example:

Top-Level
├── Buy milk
├── Write notes
└── Assignment
    ├── Read instructions
    ├── Create draft
    ├── Submit for feedback
    └── Iteration 1

  1. Allow nested project support for organizing more complex tasks.

Example:

Top-Level
├── Plan birthday
│   ├── Invite friends
│   ├── Buy decorations
│   └── Make cake
│       ├── Buy ingredients
│       ├── Bake the cake
│       └── Frost the cake
└── Pay bills

  1. Provide distinct keybinds for creating tasks vs. projects.
