In a Quire workspace, each project will have five main spaces: List, Sublist, Document, Chat, and Overview. Each space helps teams manage tasks, collaborate efficiently, and track progress.
List [Permalink](/content/guide/project-workspace/#list "Permalink"/index.html)
The list tab is the default project layout, showing tasks in a hierarchical tree structure. It lets you break ideas into actionable steps and organize your workflow efficiently.
You can add task details, including:
Tip: Press Ctrl or ⌘ + . to toggle full-screen mode and view more tasks.
Sublist [Permalink](/content/guide/project-workspace/#sublist "Permalink"/index.html)
A sublist is a personalized or filtered view of the same project. It helps team members focus on their tasks without getting lost in a large project list.
- Sublist can help create a focused view for project members or External Team members sharing the workload.
- Changes in a sublist mirror the main List. Reordering tasks in a sublist updates the main List automatically.
