Eisenhower Decision Matrix with Silver Bullet?

Hi, someone recommended the Eisenhower decision matrix to me (see a description here, if you are new to it: The Eisenhower Matrix: Introduction & 3-Minute Video Tutorial).

I was thinking I should be able to turn Silver Bullet tasks into a decision matrix fairly easily, but I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to do the CSS/design part.

From a task / query perspective, I think using the task query from the default index page and just using tags like q1-q4, or alternatively #urgent #important #noturgent #notimportant would get me the 4 lists. So not worried about that, but that default query pulls a template, so how that might interact with a CSS chart is worrying me. Anyone have ideas?

Here’s the default query
${template.each(query[[
from index.tag “task”
where table.includes(_.tags, “q1”) and not _.done
]], templates.taskItem)}

I just simply make four sections that show the respective tasks: silverbullet-libraries/Library/EisenhowerMatrix/README.md at main · janssen-io/silverbullet-libraries · GitHub

Is there any particular layout you want to go for? Do you really want the matrix?
