Swimlanes


Swimlanes are horizontal lanes on your project board that let your group and isolate similar tasks together.

You can choose to set up your swimlanes in any way you like. Here are some examples:

  • Users - one user per swimlane
  • Projects - one project per swimlane
  • Departments - divide tasks between departments - development, design, marketing, etc
  • Priorities, Current Projects, Completed Projects, Issues
  • Features - example Feature A, Feature B, Feature C
