Create your first project

Use a project to group work that belongs together.

Create a project

Create a project for a single area of work, team, product, customer, or personal list. A focused project is easier to scan and easier to automate later.

When you create the project, choose:

• A clear name that people will recognize in the sidebar.
• A short project code for item keys.
• An icon or color that makes the project easy to spot.

Add the first items

Add a few real items before changing project settings. That gives you a better feel for whether the default workflow fits.

Good first items are short and action-oriented:

• Draft launch checklist
• Review onboarding flow
• Fix empty state copy
• Invite beta testers

Keep the title brief. Put context, links, notes, and acceptance details in the description.

Adjust project settings

Open project settings when the default workflow does not match how the project actually moves.

You can use settings to tune:

• Project name, code, icon, and color.
• Statuses and their order.
• Which status counts as complete.
• Labels and other project-specific structure.

Keep the first setup simple

Avoid creating every possible status and label up front. Start with the workflow you need today, then add structure when the project starts to feel hard to scan.
