Views: Kanban, List, Gantt and more

The same tasks, looked at different ways: Board, Kanban, List, Gantt, Workload and Overview. Switching never moves or copies anything.

Switch views at the top of the board. Each answers a different question about the same tasks.

Kanban

One column per stage. Drag a card to change its stage.

Columns follow the workspace’s workflow stages. A stage can have a limit (say, 4 in Build) so nobody starts more than the team can finish.

Kanban in a sample team: Design, Review, Build, Test, Done.

List

Every task in one table. Sort any column, group by person, week, stage or priority, and change stage or priority right in the row. Tick several rows to change them together.

Gantt

Each task is a bar from its start to its deadline, with arrows for “waits on”. Drag a bar or its ends to re-plan; tasks that wait on it move along. Phases and sprints show above.

Gantt: bars, phases and the arrows between tasks.

Workload

Hours planned per person per week (or per day), against their capacity, with time off. Red means more than they have.

The Overview is a page, not a view of cards: description, status, stages, timeline and what’s late, worked out from the board.
