Cascade Editor

Definition: Cascade Editor is Taskade's advanced Table View component that powers Genesis Apps and provides database-like functionality for projects. While Taskade projects support all universal views (List, Board, Calendar, Mind Map, Org Chart, Action View), Cascade Editor specifically handles the Table View interface where data remains persistent across all view transformations.
