Access to a user-friendly project management tool goes a long way in keeping teams aligned on tasks, deadlines, and priorities. With the Nextcloud Deck<\/a> app, you can turn your work items into cards in a few clicks and visualize them as a kanban board or Gantt chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a closer look at the app’s features and the improvements it received with the Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring Release<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to use Nextcloud Deck for private and secure project management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re familiar with tools like Trello, you’ll feel right at home with Nextcloud Deck. The difference is that with Deck, your tasks and projects are stored on your own server, giving you full control over your data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After accessing the app from your navigation bar, you’ll be presented with an overview of your boards. Click on „Add board“ to create a new one and then on „Add list“ in the top-right corner to create columns for your cards. On a typical kanban board, these lists would be titled „To Do“, „In Progress“, and „Done“, but you can create as many lists as needed to organize your projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now you can create as many cards as you want by clicking on the „Add card“ icon on top of each list. Of course, you can freely drag them around to reorder them or move them from one list to another. You can also archive cards and lists you no longer need and restore them later if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clicking on a card opens the „Card details“ view. Here, you can assign the card to a Nextcloud user, categorize it using tags, choose a start and due date, and add dependent cards (sub-tasks, if you will). In the description field, you can put down relevant information and even create tables, checklists, and more, thanks to Markdown support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Switching from the „Details“ tab to the „Attachments“ tab lets you upload files relevant to the task from your computer or share them from Nextcloud Files. In the „Comments“ tab, you can start a discussion with your team members and tag any user with access to your board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Switching from kanban view to Gantt view<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring Release<\/a> introduced card dependencies and the option to give each card both a start and end date. Thanks to these additions, you can visualize your tasks as a Gantt chart, which shows you a timeline of your tasks with their dependencies and deadlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Visualizing<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To toggle between the kanban board and Gantt chart, click on the three dots in the top-right corner of the window and select either „Kanban view“ or „Gantt view“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Gantt chart, timelines are color-coded based on which list each card is currently located at. You can switch between a monthly, weekly, daily and even hourly view to know exactly what is happening when.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gantt view is just one of many new features introduced in Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring. As of this update, you can also:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
