Free marketplace app — organize projects, tasks, and comments with a Kanban board.
Simple Project Tracker
Simple Project Tracker is a free marketplace app that brings lightweight project management to your FastYoke workspace. Organize your work into projects, break them down into tasks, collaborate with comments, and visualize progress on a Kanban board.
What it does
The app provides three core entities and everything you need to run them:
- Projects — top-level containers for related work. Each has a name, optional description, owner, and color for visual organization.
- Tasks — work items that live in projects (or stand alone as inbox-style items). Track title, description, assignee, priority, due date, and custom labels. A task can also be broken into sub-tasks — child tasks shown right on the parent's detail page with their current status and an "X of Y done" summary.
- Comments — threaded notes on tasks. Each comment carries author, body, and timestamps for team discussion.
- Time entries — log minutes against any task. Each task's detail page shows its entries with a running total, and a workspace-wide Time Log page lists them all.
All task state is managed through a Kanban board with five lanes: Backlog, To Do, In Progress, Blocked, and Done. Drag tasks between lanes to advance work. Unblock a task manually, reopen completed work if needed, or use the admin override to force a state change with a reason.
Installing from Logic Cores
- Go to Logic Cores (sidebar → Logic Cores).
- Find Simple Project Tracker in the free apps section.
- Click Install.
- Choose whether to load demo data (3 sample projects, 14 tasks including a few sub-tasks, 6 comments, and a handful of time entries). Demo mode helps you see the board in action; you can delete it anytime.
- Done. The app appears in your workspace sidebar as Projects.
In the app
Once installed, you'll see these main pages:
| Page | What it does |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | Quick overview — your active tasks and a list of all projects. |
| Board | Kanban view grouped by task state. Drag to transition; click a task to open its detail page. |
| My Tasks | Just the tasks assigned to you, across every project — filtered automatically by your account's email. |
| Projects | Full list of projects. Click to open, or edit inline. |
| Tasks | Full list of tasks across all projects (and orphaned inbox items). Sort and filter by project, assignee, or priority. |
| Comments | Activity stream of all comments on all tasks. |
| Time Log | Every time entry logged across all tasks. |
Click any task to open its detail page, where you can:
- Edit task fields (title, description, assignee, priority, due date, labels).
- See and advance its sub-tasks, with an "X of Y done" roll-up of their status.
- Log time against the task and see the running total.
- See the full comment thread.
- Advance the task through its lifecycle using the state buttons.
Building on it
The Kanban board and task lifecycle are powered by FastYoke's FSM Designer. You can extend the app without code:
- Add custom guards — e.g., "only move to Done if priority is not High" or "reject start if due date has passed". Edit the task lifecycle in Admin → FSM Designer → task_lifecycle.
- Add custom fields — go to Admin → Annotation pages and add fields to
task,project, orcomment. They appear immediately in forms and lists. - Customize page layout — edit the app pages in Admin → Pages to hide fields, reorder columns, or tweak CSS.
Multi-tenant and secure
Every tenant's projects, tasks, and comments are isolated. Uninstalling the app cleanly removes all seeded demo data while preserving the FSM schema (in case you create tasks later and want the same workflow).
What's not included
- Attachments on tasks or comments.
- Due-date notifications or reminders.
- Start/stop timers (time is logged as manual minute entries).
- Real assignee management — assignee is free-text today. The My Tasks page matches your account's email against the assignee field, so set assignees to teammates' emails to make it work for everyone.
These are deliberately simple starting points so you can focus on core workflow. If you need any of these, add them via the Annotation editor and the detail-page renderer will pick them up automatically.
