Core concepts

A handful of objects make up everything in Trackr. Understanding how they nest makes the rest of the product obvious.

The object model #

ObjectWhat it isLives in
OrganizationTop-level container for a team or a client. Holds members and tickets. One org is marked internal: your own team.Account
ProjectA body of work with its own key, color, status, lead and members.Organization
TaskA single unit of work: title, status, priority, type, assignees, estimate, due date, planned day.Project
TicketAn inbound request from a client or colleague that can be triaged into a task.Organization
ThreadA chat conversation scoped to an organization, with tags and subscriptions.Organization
Wiki pageA long-lived, collaboratively edited document in a folder tree.Internal team
NoteA quick personal note or a meeting note, optionally shared by link.User

Because these share one data model, a ticket can become a task, a chat thread can spawn a ticket, and a wiki page can reference the tasks it describes, without exporting or copy-pasting anything.

Internal team vs. client organizations #

Trackr distinguishes between your team and your clients:

  • The internal organization is your company. Its members see every project, every ticket, the wiki, chat and notes.
  • Client organizations get a confined portal: their members can open and follow tickets, see the projects you share with them, and nothing else.

A single account can belong to many organizations. Consultants and agencies switch between them from the sidebar.

Statuses, priorities and types #

Tasks carry a small, fixed set of structured properties so you can group and filter without custom fields.

PropertyValues
statusbacklog · todo · in_progress · paused · in_review · done
prioritynone · low · medium · high · urgent
typetask · bug · improvement · feature · chore
estimateMinutes. Feeds My Week capacity.
dueA calendar date.
plannedForThe day the task is scheduled on in My Week.

Tickets have their own lifecycle:

PropertyValues
statusopen · in_progress · waiting_on_customer · waiting_on_agent · paused · resolved · closed
prioritylow · medium · high · urgent
categorygeneral · billing · technical_issue · feature_request

References #

Every task and ticket has a human-readable reference built from its project or organization key, like SCM-12 or ACME-7. References work everywhere: in the command palette, in chat and wiki mentions, in the CLI and in the API.
