With Projects in Mariko, you can gather activities, areas and goals in one place - no matter what day they’re due. It makes it easy to focus on the big picture, collaborate in groups and keep track of ongoing initiatives. Projects are perfect for working groups, support groups or private long-term goals that need structure.

1. Navigate to “Projects”

You can access the projects pages in two ways:

• Via the side menu: Click on Projects

  

• Via the context menu at the bottom of the screen

  (visible on each page in the bottom navigation)

  

2. create a new project

Press + Add at the bottom right to create a new project.

This can also be done from the settings menu (three dots at the top right).

3. Naming and configuring projects

Enter a name, description (optional), color and choose whether the project should be shared or private.

You can also enter participants and access settings directly (we’ll go through that further down in the text)

4. Edit or delete projects

From the project list:

• Press the menu icon (three dots)

• Select Edit project or Delete project

  

5. Add content to a project

This works exactly the same as it does in the Daily schedule, Master list or Private activities.

This guide will show you the differences, what is unique to your project!

• Click on the project name to open the project page.

  

• Inside the project, you add both activities and areas in the same way as usual.

  For example, you can press + Add at the bottom right to add an activity.

  

6. Link activity to area and project

The activity is automatically linked to the current project.

You can also select the area, color, category - just like in the daily schedule.

7. settings menu in a project

Via the menu button in the project you can, for example

• Change the order of areas

• Hide completed or skipped activities

• Add new areas

• Turn off the display of duration etc.

8. Organization within projects

Projects provide the possibility to structure activities in areas, set color coding, and organize independently of days of the week.

Well noticed! Here is a supplement that reproduces and integrates the description of screen 10-12, ie the functions around:

• Organizing in areas

• Editing and restructuring

• Project settings for display

I add this as a new section between points 7 and 8 in the previous structure, and adjust the numbering accordingly.

7. Structure the project with areas

In addition to project structure, you can create areas - a type of subcategory in the project.

It helps you to group together activities that belong together, e.g. “Follow-up”, “Planning”, “Preparations”.

To manage areas:

• Press the menu icon (three dots) in the project view

• Select Add area or Change the order of areas

You can also choose to:

• Hide clear, skipped or empty areas

• Adjust the display of the duration of activities

8. Organizing activities in a project

Unique to a project is that you see a setting for the project location.

Select Project

• From here you can easily move an activity to another project or delete it as a “project activity” then it will be moved to your private activities.

  

Select Location & Area

• This menu allows you to select an area or move the activity to your private activities.

9. Share project

Sharing a project works the same way as sharing your daily schedule.

So let’s go through what’s special about Projects.

To start sharing, click on the project you want to share and open it

(Tip: you can also share from the editing settings of a project as we mentioned earlier)

Click on the sharing icon (person with a plus sign) on the project page

After sharing, the project will appear under “Shared projects” in the overview with a sharing icon so you don’t get confused about what is private and what is shared.

Assigning the person responsible for an activity

When you create or edit an activity that is in a shared project, you will now see a setting for Responsible.

This allows you to change who is responsible for this activity.

By default, the person who creates the activity is responsible.

• Choosing the person responsible

  You can see which role a user has for this particular project.

  

See shared activities in a project

A shared project shows an icon of the responsible person in the right corner of the activity card.

You can also see that a project is shared by the fact that the “sharing icon” now has two people instead of one with a plus sign.
