Just HTML, routes work 2. **Apply theme on page load** - Small JavaScript addition 3. **Create activity feed widget** - Display activities on dashboard ### Medium Tasks (1-3 hours each) 4. **Complete time entry templates** - CRUD routes + UI 5. **Integrate activity logging** - Follow guide for all routes 6. **Saved filters UI** - Save/load functionality ### Larger Tasks (3-5 hours) 7. **Bulk task operations** - Full implementation 8. **Enhanced keyboard shortcuts** - Expand command palette 9. **Comprehensive testing** - Test all new features --- ## 💡 **Usage Examples** ### Excel Export Button (Add to templates) ```html Export to Excel ``` ### Access User Settings ```html Settings ``` ### Log Activity ```python Activity.log( user_id=current_user.id, action='created', entity_type='task', entity_id=task.id, entity_name=task.name, description=f'Created task "{task.name}"' ) ``` --- ## 🐛 **Known Issues / Notes** 1. **Email requires SMTP** -
