32. Let’s see how
Trello works

33. Let’s begin with
Trello board basics

34. First, let’s create a board

35. A board is
a collection
of cards

36. ordered in a list of lists.

37. Use it to manage a
project,

38. track a collection or organize
anything.

39. To create a board, click “Create
new board”

40. Or you can click the plus “+”
sign as shown

41. and choose “Create board…”

42. Write the title of your board. In this
example, I wrote “Palawan Trip” as my title

43. Then click “Create”

44. Yes you guessed it right! I’m
planning a trip to Palawan

45. We now have a board which we can
use to create a list of to-dos

46. By the way, you can always
customize your board.

47. On the Menu section found
on the right side of the
page

48. is where you can find the
options on how to
customize your board

49. Let’s say I want to
change my background.

50. Just click the “Change
Background” option

51. And choose an option that suites you.
In this example, I will choose “Photos”

52. I will choose this as my
background

53. This is how my new board looks like.

54. Let’s now proceed by adding some
lists

55. Lists keep cards organized in
their various stages of progress.

56. They can be used to
create a workflow

57. where cards are
moved across lists
from start to finish,

58. or simply act as a place
to keep track of ideas
and information.

59. There’s no limit to the
number of lists you can
add to a board.

60. To add a list, just click “Add a list” and
type a particular action

61. In my example, I wrote the word “To
do” as my first list

62. I will add 2 more to
complete my lists.

63. Now let’s add a card
Examples of cards

64. The fundamental unit of a
board is a card.

65. Cards are used to represent
tasks and ideas.

66. A card can be
something that
needs to get done,
like a blog post to
be written,

67. or something that
needs to be
remembered, like
company vacation
policies.

68. To add a card, click “Add a card” and
type your task

69. Here are some of the cards in
my Palawan Trip.

70. There’s no limit to the number of
cards you can add to a board.

71. Drag and drop cards across
lists to show progress.

72. Here is an example of the card that I
dragged from my “To Do” list to my “Doing”
list

73. Follow the same principle of dragging a card
from 1 list to another upon completing a
task. This is how you will monitor your
progress

74. Basically, that’s how Trello
works. Simple and easy!

75. Here are some of the examples how
others use Trello

79. That’s it for now.
