Creating a Task Tracker

Steps

1. To create a Task tracker, you need to click + on home, choose set.md and set Task as a source. That's it. You just started a task tracker!
2. So now you can view all Tasks in one place. For the Task list, you may add relations. Tag, Due date, Priority, or any other use for your tracker.
3. You can also use filters, sorts, and views like:
   1. Relation Done Is Unchecked so you will see only those that are not done
   2. Create a view Work and Personal with filters Tag contains Work and Tag contains Personal to separate the lists
   3. Make Due date ascending to see nearest tasks higher

You can create a Task object with the + button in-row in your Set, in the editor by typing /Task, or using + from the dashboard. All of these objects will be shown in this Set.

Custom type

If you don't like Relations and Templates used in Task, you can library.md that will fit your needs.

1. You need to open library.md in Home screen, which contains all Types in Anytype
2. Press "Create a new type."
3. In your custom Type, you can choose any relation and create a template you want.
4. To create a Task tracker, you need to click "Create" → "New Set of objects."

Template

It's convenient to create templates for repeatable tasks with pre-filled options. For example, templates related to Work can contain Tag == Work with higher default priority.
