I think it would be really useful to display the colour badge of the assigned project alongside the name of the project itself when viewing a specific task. Using the example below I’d suggest showing the red icon of the `Communication` project to the left of the word ‘Communication’ in the second image.

Going hand in hand with this also would be to have the same occur when viewing the task in list view, as referenced in the third image.

Thanks for everyone’s hard work on this awesome project 😁

Sounds like a good idea. Can’t promise to implement this but I’d merge a PR if someone wants to contribute.

This should already be the case, just not released in a stable. You can check this on [try](https://try.vikunja.io).
