What it is
Taskade for Firefox is a browser extension that brings Taskade’s task management, notes, and collaboration tools directly into Firefox. It integrates lists, outlines, kanban boards, and chat into a compact sidebar or popup so you can manage work without switching tabs or apps.
Key features
- Quick capture: Create tasks, notes, and project templates from the extension popup or sidebar.
- Multiple views: Switch between list, board, and outline views to match how you think.
- Real-time sync: Changes sync instantly with your Taskade account across devices.
- Keyboard shortcuts: Built-in shortcuts for fast task creation, navigation, and formatting.
- Collaboration: Invite teammates, comment, and assign tasks directly from the extension.
- Offline access: Edit tasks offline; changes sync when you reconnect.
- Lightweight performance: Designed to use minimal memory and not slow down browsing.
Typical use cases
- Capture quick ideas or todos while researching in-browser.

Tips to get the most out of it

- Combine with a browser bookmarklet or context-menu options (if available) to add tasks from selected text or pages.
Limitations to be aware of
- Some advanced features may still require the full web or desktop app.
