Clear and concise description of the problem

there is no way to set objects such as tasks or events as recurring at a pre-defined time or interval.

Suggested solution

Recurring Objects with start and end date, time period and frequency (for example daily, weekly, monthly etc) are key features for a lot of functionality that is being requested repeatedly (eg https://community.anytype.io/t/recurring-objects/2109 or for a number of https://community.anytype.io/t/add-a-date-range-duration-period-relation/7568 use cases (recurring tasks, meetings, schedules, chores, trainings etc). This should be prioritized by putting it on the road map.

Alternative

There is no way to create this key functionality in other ways .

Additional context

This is one key aspect in which Anytype is lacking behind notion and other tools, making importing data and systems from there difficult.

I agree with this, I'm migrating Microsoft TO-DOs to anytype tasks, the recurring due date is an important feature.
