Overview

What Skedy is, key concepts, and how to get around.

What is Skedy?

Skedy is a Gantt-style production scheduling app. You manage tasks across department rows, share schedules with collaborators, and export to PDF.

Key concepts

ProjectA production schedule with rows, tasks, share links, and settings.

DepartmentA category (Directing, Camera, Production…) grouping one or more rows.

RowA named lane inside a department. Tasks sit on rows.

TaskA scheduled item with title, dates, status, priority, notes, checklist, and resources.

MilestoneA dated moment that spans several rows at once: a shoot day, a delivery, a lock.

ResourceA crew member assigned to tasks, shown as colored initials on task bars.

TemplateA frozen copy of one project's structure you can start new projects from.

Getting around

Sidebar: switch views (Schedule / List), manage projects, access Resources, and open the account menu at the bottom.
Top bar: project title, search (opens command palette Cmd/Ctrl+K), Share, Export.
Toolbar: date navigation, view mode, zoom, Filter, Select, View settings, New milestone, New task.

Nothing to save

There is no save button anywhere. Every edit writes itself as you make it, and Cmd/Ctrl+Z undoes the last 50 steps if you change your mind.

Open boards also refresh themselves every few seconds, so a change made by a collaborator, or by you in another tab, appears without a reload.

Take the tour

The guided tour walks the whole interface, spotlighting one control at a time. It runs once on your first board and can be replayed any time from the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar, or from the command palette under Help.

On a shared link the tour trims itself to what your role can actually do, so a viewer is never shown a button they don't have.
