01

Stays in your browser

The builder asks for no credentials, never connects to your server, and sends nothing you type to deckloud.com.

02

How to use it

Name the board, list stacks and labels one per line, and write cards as stack | title | description. Download the file, then choose New board in Deckloud. On the desktop, click Import board template file; on iPhone, iPad, and Android, tap Import template file…

03

What makes a template worth reusing

Good templates encode a process: stack names for states, labels that work across projects, and cards that read as instructions.

FAQ

Practical questions

Can this import into my server directly?

No. Import the file in Deckloud, which is already signed in to your account.

What should I avoid putting into templates?

Private client data, comments, attachments, server IDs, fixed due dates, and cards about one person.
