The four quadrants
The quadrants are Do First (top-left, urgent and important), Schedule (top-right, important but not urgent), Delegate (bottom-left, urgent but not important), and Don’t Do (bottom-right, neither). See the priority matrix for how the importance and urgency fields map to quadrants. A task’s quadrant is purely a function of the importance and urgency fields you set on it. Change either field and the task moves accordingly.What the widget shows
- Up to 50 tasks across the four active statuses:
backlog,todo,in_progress,in_review. - Each quadrant lists the tasks that fall into it, with title, status badge, and due date if one is set.
- Clicking a task takes you to its detail page.
Creating a task from the widget
A Create Task button sits above the quadrants and opens the same form as the Tasks page, so you can add work without leaving the home page. A new task with an active status drops straight into its matching quadrant. When you have no tasks yet, the quadrants show empty-state hints — create your first task with the button and it appears immediately.Next steps
