Gantt view for tasks, not just goals

It would be great to have a Gantt view for tasks as well, not just for goals. This would make planning and tracking timelines much more useful, especially for projects with multiple steps and deadlines.

For example, I may have a goal like “Complete Projects of 2025”, and then use tasks such as “Finish Project A for Client A” underneath it. In this case, I do not want to create a full project (sub-goal) for each task - I would prefer to work with normal tasks, subtasks, or checklists.

However, I still need a way to plan when I want to work on each project. A task-level Gantt view would make it much easier to schedule and manage this kind of workload over time.

    Seeing only the Goals in that view doesn’t make much sense because a Goal does only show a timeframe, but that doesn’t mean, it’s active every single day.

    That means, having tasks in there, is crucial for planning and for a Gantt view to make sense.

    Having more Sub-Goals would be a workaround but one, that would clutter up things very fast when it leads to tasks (specific things to do on one specific day) becoming Sub-Goals.

    From the few days I fell in love with Griply, I understand this is not a project management software, it's a life planning/tracking. But Goals and Sub-goals are an adequate fit for projects - regardless of naming conventions, and therefore, having the ability to also schedule tasks in the timeline would be essential to have.

    For those that wouldn't need to see/schedule tasks in timeline, an expandable block would neatly hide the tasks. And the toggle state (visible/open x hidden/collapsed) would be nice to be posted to DB as well for each goal.
