Setting up a workspace

Step 1. Company name

This one is straighforward

After logging in using your email and password or via your Gmail account, you will see a screen where you can enter your company name. This should be straightforward.

Step 2. Setting up stages

Here you can define stages of software development lifecycle

The next screen is about setting up the stages that every feature iteration must go through before it’s ready for users.

In Swinlanes, there are no pre-development stages or “Definition of Ready.” Development always comes first, and its name and position cannot be changed. The rest of the stages can be renamed and rearranged. By default, the form includes QA and Ready for Users instead of “Definition of Done,” and you can add up to two more stages. These could be Code Review, Design Review, or anything else that suits your product.

Currently, stages are set once during onboarding. They are workspace-wide and cannot be changed except by contacting [e-mail]. In the future, we will allow changing them in the settings and making them product-specific.
