How to create a shared task list in SharePoint 2013
To create a shared task list with a nice project summary view, I can click on the tile called “Working on a deadline?” in the “Get started with your site” menu. If you don’t see this option on your site you can add a task list by clicking “Site Contents”, “add an app” and select the app called “Tasks” to add it to your site. I’ll click “Home” to go back to the site and I’ll click on the “Working on a deadline” tile.
I’ll click “Add them” to add the apps to my site. Here you can see the “Project Summary” web part, with the timeline.
To go to the task list click “Tasks” in the left side menu or click “Edit” in the project summary web part to start editing your task list.
The default view when you add a task list in SharePoint 2013 is the “Quick Edit” view. Here you can quickly add tasks by typing in this small grid.
