After creating a project, you will see this kind of kanban board where you can manage your task, assignment to your team member, track progress status and all you do via drag and drop your task between “new”, “ready”, and “in progress”, etc. according to your task status. With the help of the “+” icon, you can create your task just like above, you can see one is present “Article writing”. And using three dots on a particular card of the task, you can edit the task, delete that and assign it to a team member as well. Using the “search” button to find a particular task via its name, after pressing the task you will see all the details of that particular task on the details page.
On the left-hand side of the kanban board interface, you will find “team” and “settings” tabs. The Settings tab lets you edit organization-wide preferences. Here you can adjust settings for attributes, members, permissions, integration, plugins and more. We only use the kanban module in this demo, but you can enable or disable other modules. In the module section, we have “Epics”, “Scrum”, “Kanban”, “Issues”, “Wiki”, “MeetUp”. So here we just selected “wiki” and “kanban” which we can see in the left section of the dashboard.
