The Tasks module is where you manage individual work items to ensure your projects stay on schedule. This section provides a centralized view of all to-dos across your various initiatives.

### Managing Your Tasks

The Tasks page allows you to organize and filter your workload to stay focused on high-priority items:

- Navigation: Click on Tasks in the left-hand sidebar to view and manage all tasks across your workspace.
- Status Overview: Four status cards at the top of the page provide a real-time count of your tasks:
    
    
    - All Tasks: Total number of work items.
    - To Do: Tasks that have not yet been started.
    - In Progress: Tasks currently being worked on.
    - Done: Completed tasks.
- Search & Filters: You can search for specific tasks by name or description and filter the list by Project, Milestone, Assignee, Priority, and Status.
- View Options: Toggle between a Table or Cards view to change how tasks are displayed.

> **Important:** Before creating tasks, you first need to create a project. All tasks must be assigned to an existing project to ensure they are properly tracked and organized.
