RewoHub - Filtering the backlog & Kanban Board improvements

Ahoy everyone, and a good day to you. The last two weeks were sensational in regard to achievements for RewoHub. The total commitment was delivered. Kanban boards now have a backlog and the layout of the meetings app was fixed, to name a few. Let’s get into details:

Results

The 27th iteration of RewoHub comes to an end. Altough pleaged from disruptions and we’ve managed to deliver a substential amount of the commitment. Let’s checkout the changes.

✅ Enable Meetings outside of the same network

This was a tough one and took at least 50% of the time I could work in this 2 weeks. Deploying a TURN server on k8s after realizing I need one for communication between two parties behind a NATS turned out to be without success. I’m using Digital Ocean as my provider and had to learn the hard way that you can only forward up to 40 UTC/UDP ports for their Ingress Controller implementation, bummer. So a plain droplet with a reserved IP was the solution I’ve decided on.

✅ Send kanban board cards to the bottom/top of a column via the menu

Love to use this to make a task prio 1 fast. Backlog improvements

✅ Add a menu bar to the backlog with a title and back button

I like how the menu bar is now a more general thing. Progress in the direction of a more unified design. The backlog and the kanban board got a refactoring with the new menu bar. Here is an example for the backlog.

Backlog improvements

✅ Merge title into menu bars, when available

Also here we have regained some lost space due to the original heading. Merging the title and the menu bar gives move space to the tasks, nice. Here a comparison of the new vs the old Kanban Board.

Backlog improvements

✅ Add filter option to backlog

Backlog improvements

✅ Add a button to get back to the kanban board from a backlog

Navigation between the Backlog of a Kanban Board and the board itself is now also possible via a button. Backlog improvements

🚧 Add payment option via stripe

As of writing this report, this feature is in the making. Turned out to be a bit bigger than expected so a bit of divide & conquer is nessesary for this one.

🚧 Improve my Twitter profile banner

Again, not time for this one. Moving it to the next iteration.

Due to sickness and the holidays, I could invest less than 50% of the regular time I’ve planned. We’ve improved Let’s get to the changes for this iteration.

Till next time ✌️. Yours truly, Dodo
