Navigating the Leantime Dashboard

At the heart of Leantime lies its intuitive dashboard, offering a bird's eye view of your project through three distinct task management options: Kanban, Table, and List views. These flexible options empower teams to organize and prioritize tasks in a manner that best suits their working style.

Milestones and Timelines: Staying on Track
