taskell

First, thanks for this application!

We use a kanban board at work, but the work flow includes linked cards to track larger initiatives that themselves have cards (i.e. items larger than than a subtask check box). The only way I can think of doing this in current taskell is using distinct taskell files, however that has obvious downsides.

For example, we may have a card like, "Feature A" which may link to several sub-cards, "Blocking Issue B", "Blocking Issue C", and "Required feature D". Some of those may themselves link to other cards.

From the UI we can open, "Feature A" and easily jump to the linked cards and see details, work notes, etc. The links form a tree so to speak.

The implementation of "linked cards" could have one of several designs:

• The easiest would probably be "tags" where one could simply show/hide all cards of a particular tag. The biggest downside to this approach is there is no easy way to determine hierarchy, or ability to "jump" from card to card. This may also be a separate feature entirely.
• Actual links to one or more cards, where selecting the subcard just opens the details of that card. The ability to go "back" would be great, but isn't really required for an MVP of this feature.

Bonus if these links could be as part of the sub-tasks check blocks.

I was wanting that exact feature the other day.

It would be a stronger and better alternative to my suggestion (#55 )
