    Task Dependencies

    Link tasks. Block progress. Stay in order.

    Why You'll Love Task Dependencies

    Blocked-By Links

    Mark tasks that can't start until a prerequisite is done

    Visual Indicators

    See dependency status at a glance in any view

    Auto-Unblock

    Completing a prerequisite unblocks dependent tasks

    Prevent Missed Steps

    Never skip a step in multi-part workflows

    Team Clarity

    Everyone knows what's waiting on what

    Simple Setup

    Link tasks in seconds — no complex project plans needed

    How It Works

    1

    Open a Task

    Navigate to any task in your list or board

    2

    Add Dependency

    Link it to another task as 'blocked by' or 'blocking'

    3

    See Status

    Blocked tasks show a visual indicator until prerequisites complete

    4

    Complete in Order

    Finish prerequisites to auto-unblock dependent tasks

    The Difference is Clear

    Without Task Dependencies

    • Forgetting prerequisite steps
    • Starting tasks before they're ready
    • Manual tracking of task order
    • Miscommunication on what's blocking whom

    With Task Dependencies

    • Clear prerequisite chains
    • Tasks auto-unblock when ready
    • Visual dependency indicators
    • Everyone sees the critical path
