Creating Your First Task

Let's create your first task! Follow these steps:

    Click the "New Task" button (usually in the top right corner) or press the "+" button in the calendar.

  2. Enter task details
    • Title: Give your task a clear, descriptive name (e.g., "Write project proposal")
    • Description: Add any additional notes or details (optional)
    • Duration: Estimate how long the task will take (e.g., 2 hours)
    • Priority: Choose from Low, Medium, High, or Urgent
