Every Decuga project can now have as many named Kanban boards as you need - each with its own filters, sprint scope, and hidden sections. Here is how filtered board views work and why they beat one board for everything.
A single Kanban board works fine until your project has more than a handful of people on it. Then everyone wants a different lens on the same work: the frontend engineer wants to see only frontend sections, the team lead wants everything overdue across every sprint, and the person triaging support-linked bugs wants only tasks tied to a specific customer's tickets. Before, you got one board and a search box - every different view meant re-typing the same filters from scratch, every time you opened the tab.
Every project's Group Tasks and Sprint Tasks tabs now support multiple named boards - think "Sprint 12", "Backlog", "My Tasks", or "Frontend" - switchable from a board tab bar at the top, the same way you'd switch tabs in a spreadsheet. Create, rename, reorder, or delete boards from that switcher. The same set of boards is shared between the Group Tasks and Sprint Tasks tabs, since both are just different arrangements of the same underlying work.
This is the part worth getting right: a board doesn't hold its own tasks. It's a filtered lens over the project's shared tasks and sections. Switching boards never moves, copies, or duplicates a task - it just changes what you see and how it's arranged. That also means a task can legitimately show up on more than one board if it matches more than one board's filters. Boards are overlapping views, not exclusive buckets.
Not to be confused with Decuga's collaborative whiteboards (freeform Excalidraw canvases for sketching and retros) - board views are filtered Kanban lenses over your actual tasks, a different feature entirely, even though both happen to be called "boards".
Each board carries its own filter criteria on top of its section/sprint scope, so two boards over the exact same tasks can look completely different:
| Filter | What it narrows down |
|---|---|
| Assignee | Only tasks assigned to you, or to specific teammates |
| Tags | Only tasks carrying one or more chosen tags |
| Priority / Status | e.g. only High/Urgent, or only In Progress |
| Due date | Shorthands like Overdue or This Week - no manual date math |
| Linked Service Desk tickets | Only tasks linked to tickets from a specific reporter or company |
| Linked roadmap items | Only tasks tied to roadmap items in a chosen quarter |
Say a support-heavy project wants a board that only shows engineering work tied to one enterprise customer's open tickets. Create a board named after the account, filter by "linked ticket company", and it's done - every task connected to that customer's Service Desk activity shows up automatically as new tickets get linked, no manual curation. Meanwhile the default board keeps showing everything, untouched.
Open any project's Group Tasks or Sprint Tasks tab - the board switcher sits right at the top, next to the existing List/Board toggle.
Open the Tasks tab
Group Tasks or Sprint Tasks - both share the same board switcher.
