A desk in use: the inbox, the activities and the tasks side by side

A working day rarely happens in a single screen. You jump from activities to tasks, from tasks to email, from email to the calendar, and every jump costs the time it takes to find your place again.

A desk is a named layout that puts those screens side by side. Each pane points at an existing screen and keeps its own search bar, view switcher and favourites: this is not a summarised tile, it is the full screen, usable where it sits.

You create as many as you have contexts. Six layouts, one keyboard shortcut per desk, and optionally a time-of-day slot: the morning desk opens in the morning, the portfolio review one in the afternoon.

⚠️ Desks are personal. A colleague's does not appear in your list, and that is deliberate: a layout imposed on everyone goes back to being a dashboard nobody looks at.

Comparable to Salesforce Lightning App Builder, open-source flavor
