Projects & boards
A project is the top-level container. It groups related boards together and defines a team of members who can access everything inside it.
- Create a project from the dashboard with New Project.
- Invite team members from the project's Members tab.
- Archive a project to hide it without deleting it.
A board is a Kanban board. It lives inside a project or stands alone. Each board has lists (columns) that contain cards (tasks).
Pick a visibility level and optional background color when you create a board from New Board.
- Lists
- Cards
- Drag & drop
Board visibility
Private
Only you can see and edit the board.
Team
Visible to all project members. This is the default.
Public
Anyone with the URL can view — but not edit.
Lists & cards
Lists are the columns of your board. Add them with + Add list at the right edge of the board.
Drag a card from one list to another to move it through your workflow — To Do, In Progress, Done, or whatever fits your team.
Cards are individual tasks. Click a card to open its detail view where you can edit every field, comment, and attachment.
Cards show a compact thumbnail on the board with priority border, due date, assignee avatars, and label dots.
Everything on a card
Title & Description
Click to edit inline directly on the card detail view.
Priority
None through Critical — shown as a colored left border.
Due date
Displayed on the card thumbnail when set.
Assignees
Team members responsible for completing the work.
Labels
Colored tags for categorization — multiple per card.
Checklists
Multi-step sub-tasks with progress tracking.
Comments
Discussion thread attached to the card.
Attachments
Upload files directly to the card.
GitHub issue link
Connect to a GitHub issue for two-way sync.
Labels & archiving
Labels are board-scoped. Create them in the board settings sheet. Assign multiple labels to a card — they show as colored dots on the card thumbnail.
Archive a card from its detail view to hide it without deleting. Archived cards can be restored at any time.
Archiving a board removes it from the active list but preserves all data — cards, lists, and history stay intact.
Keyboard & drag tips
Cancel adding a card
Press Escape while the add-card input is open.
Move cards between lists
Drag cards by the grip handle that appears when you hover over a card.
Quick navigation
Use Escape to close the card detail panel and return to the board.
