Many tools like Jira, Asana, and Trello support dependency management. For example, in Jira, you can use the "Issue Links" feature to create dependencies between subtasks https://atlas.closeit.co/post/mastering-jira-subtasks-a-comprehensive-guide house of hazards.

this doesn't appear to be complete to me... i might be missing something, i can clearly see how to make subtasks dependent on parent tasks (which doesn't seem very useful to me), but i can't figure out how to make subtasks dependent on other subtasks. - Just figured this out. would be more intuitive if tasks had the little arrow spinners next to them to expand the subtasks

Per Tara ---> I would like to assign a dependency of a task to a subtask.

Martin: There aren't any limitations on dependencies, you should indeed be able to do that. Let me know if you have any issues!

Zeb: Zeb,
It is within the own Task’s subtask. You can not assign a particular subtask that is holding up the TASK as a whole. Not a big deal…

Martin: I am able to do this using the Task Dependency menu. If you cannot get this to work, please write in to me: help@clickup.com and we can get everything setup for you!

Can this be slightly tweaked and improved so that sub tasks can be dependant upon other subtasks in the same main task?

We're really excited about dependent on and waiting on. We'd love to be able to apply the to subtasks as well!

Dependencies are currently available for subtasks, they just aren't in the quick launch (right-click) menu. You can access subtask dependencies here:
We'll get the quick launch redesigned to add it there as well.
