Four steps to your first task #

  1. Create your organization

    Sign in, then choose New organization. An organization is the top-level container for projects, members and tickets. Most teams start with one internal org; agencies add one org per client.
  2. Invite your team

    Open Admin → Users and invite by email. Each invitee gets a role. Start everyone as Staff and promote later. Invitations expire automatically if they aren't accepted.
  3. Add your first project

    Go to Projects and create one. Give it a name, a color and a short key like SCM. Tasks in that project are numbered SCM-1, SCM-2, and so on. Pick a project template if you want a starter set of tasks.
  4. Ship a task

    Press C, type a title, set a priority with 1–4, assign it, and hit . That's it. You're tracking work.

Prefer the terminal? #

Create the same task from your shell. The CLI signs in through your browser and stores the token in your OS keychain.

terminal bash
trackr login --server https://app.trackr.dev
trackr task create --title "Prepare CAD models for the fair" \
  --project SCM --priority high --due 2026-09-12

Or call the API directly with a bearer token:

create-task.sh bash
curl -X POST https://app.trackr.dev/api/v1/tasks \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TRACKR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "title": "Prepare CAD models for the fair", "projectKey": "SCM", "priority": "high" }'
