desc Not startedData Shape
lists where each item is one task and desc carries the status word. Keep statuses to a small
vocabulary (Complete / In review / Scheduled / Not started). ⚠️ The ring templates
(list-row-circular-progress, list-grid-circular-progress) draw a number and nothing else — with no
value they print 0%, and with a value they would invent a percentage the status word does not have.
Key Options
| Option | Effect |
|---|---|
infographic list-grid-badge-card |
A card per task, desc as the status word — the honest form for a status vocabulary |
list-row-circular-progress / list-grid-circular-progress |
Use only when a real percentage per task exists |
list-grid-done-list |
Pure check-list look when the status is only done / not done |
Pitfalls
- ❌ A ring per task with status words → ✅ the ring can only draw a number, so it prints 0% for every task; use the badge card
- ❌ Numeric percentages invented per task → ✅ use status words unless a real percentage exists
- ❌ Twenty tasks → ✅ show the current week; the rest belongs in the HR system
- ❌ Using it for team-wide tracking → ✅ this is a personal view, one box per new hire
