2.6.0

Highlights

• A new header: Switch projects, search, filter on any field, sort by several keys and pick the fields you see, all in one place. Set it up once, save it as a view, and come back to it in one click.
• A board per team: Group the board by assignee, tag, or a custom field like "team", and see who is overloaded at a glance. (#392)
• Filter by what you track: "Art tasks due this month with no assignee" is one filter now, custom fields included. (#216)
• Sort like you think: Priority, then due date, then title, or... the other way around. (#196)
• Only the fields you use: Working solo? Hide the assignee column, resize the rest, and choose what a card shows. (#217)
• A timeline without weekends: Zoom from days to years with Ctrl+scroll, and drop weekends and holidays from the chart. (#338)
• Fits a phone: The views now adapt to small screens, so planning on the go actually works.
