Views
The five views
Gantt, List, Calendar, Kanban and Workload all read the same tasks. Edit in one and every other view reflects it instantly — pick the lens that fits the question you're asking right now.
Which lens for which question
- Gantt — “how does the schedule hang together?” Bars, dependencies, critical path. The planning view.
- List — “what exactly is on the plan?” A dense, sortable outline; fastest for bulk edits.
- Calendar — “what lands this week?” Tasks and key dates on a month/week grid.
- Kanban — “what state is everything in?” Columns by status; drag a card to change status.
- Workload — “is anyone over capacity?” Demand vs capacity per person across the timeline.
Reading Workload
Workload compares demand (the hours the assigned tasks imply) against capacity (how much a person can take). The capacity envelope is one continuous line across the whole timeline, and it reflects the team's real load even while you filter — filtering narrows what you see, not what's counted.
A person with capacity 1 is treated as “one thing at a time”; higher capacity allows concurrent work. Bars above the envelope are the over-allocation to resolve.
“Do I have to keep the views in sync?”
No — there's only one set of tasks. The views are renderings of it, not copies. A status flip in Kanban is the same edit as the status pill in the editor or the column in List.
Recap
- One dataset — five lenses; edits propagate everywhere instantly.
- Pick by question — plan→Gantt, bulk→List, when→Calendar, state→Kanban, load→Workload.
- Workload — demand vs a continuous capacity line; filter-stable.
