How to use it well

Leantime provides a place to connect why a project exists with what the team does next. Describe the goal in practical terms before creating a backlog, then use milestones to mark meaningful progress.

Write down the outcome of a project before building its task list. Connect milestones to that goal and keep the first board small enough to review in a meeting. Check the license of any additional plugin before including it in your deployment.
