Trello Workflow - OpenDemocracyManitoba/winnipegelection GitHub Wiki

We manage our projects and tasks using Trello. Trello/Kanban allows us to do two things:

  1. Visualize our work
  2. Limit our Work-in-Progress

Project Card Workflow

Projects are defined as a single card with an embedded to-do list.

  • Start a new project by assigning yourself a card from the Up For Grabs lane.
  • When you are working on a project, move it to the Doing lane.
  • When you complete a project, move it to the Done lane.
  • You should only ever be Doing one thing at a time.
  • Reorder project card to-do lists to show priority/plan-of-attack.

Additional Project Tasks

As you work on your projects new sub-tasks will arise.

  • For small sub-tasks add a new to-do item to the project card.
  • For large sub-tasks create a new card in the "Up For Grabs" lane and assign it to yourself or another team member.

When you add a new sub-task you don't need to work on it immediately.

Card Comments

We each have access to comment on all cards. Clarifications can be added to tasks by commenting on cards.
