What Is the Table View?
The Table view is one of the seven Project views available in Taskade. It lets you manage tasks in a table organized into customizable columns. You can reorder, resize, and hide columns to better match the type of project you're working on.
This workflow is perfect for:
Managing personal task lists
Assigning tasks to team members
Tracking project progress
Managing customer relationships
