Managing products

Once all required users and developers are added to the workspace, you can take a look at the ‘Products’ tab. As you already know, Swinlanes does not have the concept of a board like the Kanban board. Instead, it uses products. Usually, one team works on a single product, which encapsulates one or several codebases.

The Products tab contains two main elements. The first is the product selector. Unlike Jira, which has a board selector on the main screen, Swinlanes hides this selector in the settings because most people almost never use it — they typically work on their product and don’t need anything else.

The second element is the table of products. Here, you can rename your product and add or remove users and developers to or from products. Currently, we advise you not to remove developers from a product, as this feature is a work in progress. Add them as much as you can though.

Any user or developer can be added to any number of products. You can also create an unlimited number of products. The only limitation is the number of your developer licenses.
