Key Features

  • Board visibility controls for viewing and editing
  • Labels and filters to organize and find cards quickly
  • Comments on cards for discussion
  • Activity log to track changes and history
  • Reusable board templates
  • Trello board import

Use Cases

  • Replacing Trello with a self-managed kanban board for teams
  • Managing personal or small-team projects with a minimal interface
