TaskTree documentation

TaskTree shows your team's work two ways at once: an infinite canvas where tasks branch out as a tree, and a filterable list for scanning and sorting. Both views read and write the same tasks, so a change in one shows up in the other — and on everyone else's screen — within a couple of seconds.

This site is for people using TaskTree. It has two parts:

  • How-to guides — step-by-step answers to "how do I…?" Add a task, draw a dependency, assign teammates, find your own work.
  • Reference — look-it-up material. Keyboard shortcuts, what each status means, and the API reference.
