A personal productivity interface that combines task management, weighted prioritisation and project planning in one system.

Task Tracker
Overview

Managing multiple projects, deadlines and everyday tasks can quickly become difficult when everything competes for attention at once.

Task Tracker was developed as a personal planning system that brings tasks, projects and priorities into one interface. Rather than treating every task equally, it explores how weighted criteria can be used to organise workload and help determine where attention should be directed.

The Problem

Most task managers are effective at storing information, but the user still has to decide what deserves attention first.

As projects and responsibilities accumulate, deadlines, workload, difficulty and priority begin to compete. Task Tracker explores how these factors can be structured rather than managed separately.

How prioritisation works
01

Task inputs

Tasks, projects, deadlines, effort and difficulty enter the system.

02

Weighted criteria

Time, priority, duration and difficulty are treated as comparable signals.

03

Priority score

The interface calculates a relative attention score for each task.

04

Ranked workload

Tasks are ordered so the most pressing work is easier to identify.

05

Planning interface

The ranked workload connects back into planning, tasks and time logging.

The criteria currently used by the Task Tracker include:

TimePriorityDurationDifficulty

The interface uses weighted criteria to calculate relative task priority and help organise what should receive attention.

What I built

Dashboard

An attention-score view for seeing which tasks need focus first.

Planner

A calendar interface for scheduled work and upcoming deadlines.

Tasks

A searchable task table with status, priority, due dates, effort and difficulty.

Logger

A time-tracking view for recording work sessions and reviewing cadence.

Weighted prioritisation

A scoring layer that compares tasks using visible workload signals.

Project organisation

Grouped task categories for separating projects, admin and learning work.

Next Steps
  1. 01Refine the prioritisation model.
  2. 02Compare planned and actual workload.
  3. 03Improve project and calendar integration.
  4. 04Explore adaptive recommendations.
