# OpenR\&D Smart Contracts

### [Tasks](/open-source-initiatives/openr-and-d/openr-and-d-smart-contracts/tasks.md) <a href="#tasks" id="tasks"></a>

The Tasks contract is the heart of the OpenR\&D project. It contains all the functionality related to creating and updating tasks. It also stores all the task information and can be used standalone.

### [Escrow](/open-source-initiatives/openr-and-d/openr-and-d-smart-contracts/escrow.md) <a href="#escrow" id="escrow"></a>

The Escrow contract is used by the Tasks contract to store funds. Every task has its own escrow contract which will contain the budget of the task. Do not send funds to this contract directly, but instead, use the Tasks contract to increase the budget.

### [Task Drafts](broken://spaces/rlydSH1MIHSizkmm0cZU) <a href="#task-drafts" id="task-drafts"></a>

The Task Drafts contract is an Aragon OSx plugin. This means it can be installed into any Aragon OSx DAO. The plugin itself provides the functionality to allow anyone to create a proposal to create a certain task. This proposal will need to be approved by the governance structure of the DAO before the task is created.
