FAQ
What are 'squads' and 'sprints'?
'Squad' is a term for a small, cross-functional team. 'Sprint' is a short period of time (usually 1-4 weeks) where the team works to complete a set of tasks.
What are 'swimlanes'?
In the original description, 'swimlanes' refer to horizontal rows that can separate tasks by team member or category, but this simplified version might not explicitly include them.
What does 'draggable-looking cards' mean?
It means the task cards on the board look like they can be dragged and dropped between columns, similar to tools like Trello.
