### Task Search
Here is an example that shows a few different features. View it in Reading or Live Preview modes to see the results.
start with " \`\`\`tasks "
```
# Only tasks that are not done, that is, which begin like this (but without the quotes):
# '- [ ] ' or
# '* [ ] ' or
# '1. [ ] '
# Indented tasks are supported, but only single-line tasks.
not done
# Tasks due today or earlier:
due before tomorrow
# Restrict to at most 100 tasks.
# If you ask Tasks to display many hundreds or thousands of tasks,
# Obsidian's editing performance really slows down.
limit 100
# Group and sort the output:
group by filename
sort by due reverse
sort by description
# Optionally, ask Tasks to explain how it interpreted this query:
explain
```
