# Board view

The board view uses a kanban board. A kanban board is an agile project management tool designed to help visualize work, limit work-in-progress, and maximize efficiency (or flow). It can help both agile and DevOps teams establish order in their daily work. Kanban boards use cards (Tasks), columns (Stacks).

# How to use the board view

The board view main purpose is to give you a better look over a waterfall style progress of your tasks. In the view usually, but not necessarily, the tasks move from left to right in the columns.

# Waterflow usage example

Tasks are moved horizontally from left to right based on they status. When a task is created it goes into the To do column. When you start working on a specific task then it gets moved to the Doing column and eventually to the Done column when the task was completed.

To do Doing Done
Task 1 Task 7 Task 10
Task 2 Task 6 Task 9
Task 3 Task 5 Task 8

# Feature usage example

In this case the tasks are not moving to different columns when you start working on them but rather they get tagged either by using a Status or Tags to mark working on state.

Feature 1 Feature 2 Feature 3
Task 1 Task 7 Task 10
Task 2 Task 6 Task 9
Task 3 Task 5 Task 8
