Features Guide
Tosang is packed with features designed to make task management powerful yet intuitive. This guide covers everything you need to know.
Boards
Boards are the top-level containers for organizing your work. Think of each board as a separate project or area of focus.
Board Features
- Multiple Boards: Create as many boards as you need
- Custom Logos: Upload a unique logo for each board
- Board Sharing: Collaborate with others by sharing boards
- Quick Switching: Use the board dropdown to quickly switch between boards
Managing Boards
Right-click on a board in the dropdown menu to access board properties where you can:
- Rename the board
- Change or remove the board logo
- View and manage who the board is shared with
- Delete the board (this also deletes all columns and tasks)
Columns
Columns represent the stages or statuses in your workflow. They provide visual organization for your tasks.
Column Features
- Flexible Naming: Name columns anything that fits your workflow
- Drag Reordering: Rearrange columns by dragging their headers
- Task Count: Each column shows the number of tasks it contains
- Edit & Delete: Click the menu icon on a column header to edit or delete
Best Practices
- Keep column names short and descriptive
- Arrange columns left-to-right to represent your workflow progression
- Consider adding a "Blocked" or "On Hold" column for tasks that can't proceed
- Use a "Done" or "Completed" column to track finished work
Tasks
Tasks are the individual work items in your board. Each task can contain rich information to help you stay organized.
