How Laraue Boards works

Before using Laraue Boards day-to-day, it helps to understand how the pieces fit together. The hierarchy is simple: issues sit in a status, statuses live inside epics, epics live inside spaces, and spaces belong to an organization.

In this section

  • Issues β€” The core unit of work. A task captured from a Telegram message or created manually, with a unique key like WRK-42.
  • Epics β€” A kanban board with custom status columns. Issues are organized inside epics and move through columns as work progresses.
  • Spaces β€” A grouping layer above epics. Use spaces to separate client work, products, or departments.
  • Organizations β€” A shared workspace for a team. Members of an organization can see and collaborate on the same epics and spaces.

The hierarchy at a glance

Organization
  └── Space (e.g. "Mobile App")
        └── Epic / Board (e.g. "Sprint 1")
              └── Status (e.g. "In progress")
                    └── Issue (e.g. WRK-42)

The first time you log in, you already have all of this set up β€” a personal organization with one space and a default board waiting for you. You can just start sending messages to the bot and organizing issues right away. Spaces and epics become useful once you want more structure: create a new space for a separate project, or a new epic for a new board, whenever you need one.
