This walkthrough will teach you all the basics you need to start working with Trello for game dev projects effectively. I show you how to setup boards, how to create lists, how to work with cards, give a deep look into Checklists and we will have a first look into creating dependency systems. I explain how I choose which subscription tier I'm using and why; why starting out with three lists is absolutely fine and how to grow your board organically over the course of your project.

This video is not sponsored. I just really enjoy working with Trello and it's been a while since I got the chance to gush about it 💛

This is one of the emojis that gives your board confetti (they all work the same): ✨

Next tutorial is all about automation systems! There are so many cool thing you can do with those 💛
