FIG 2Board, List, Gantt, Calendar and Notes all sit in the view bar.

02Read a card#

Each card is a task. It shows the task key, the title, and whatever you have set: the assigned person, dates, priority, tags and a count of comments and checklist items. Click a card to open the task.

03Add a task#

Each project has a + New task button. Click it, type a title and press Enter. The field stays open for the next one, and Esc closes it. You can also press C anywhere on the board.

04Move work#

Drag a card to move it. Drop it in another project to move the task there, with its comments, files and history.

05Focus on one project#

Click the target icon next to a project's name to open Focus mode: just that project, one column per status.

06Make it bigger or smaller#

Open View settings in the top bar. The Size slider scales the whole app, so you can fit more on screen or make text easier to read.
