V1.7.134

V1.7.134 - 2024-11-25

We’re excited to announce the release of Boards v2.0, bringing significant performance improvements and new features to enhance your experience. Here’s what’s new:

Performance Enhancements

• Faster Load Times: We’ve streamlined the way data is fetched in the board, leading to quicker load times and a smoother user experience.
  • Previously, all teams within an ART (Agile Release Train) were fetched simultaneously, causing the UI to be blocked, especially in views with lots of teams. Now, we've optimised the data fetching process to load only essential team information upfront.
• Progressive Data Loading: Instead of waiting for all resources to load, the board will now display partially loaded sections earlier in the process, improving responsiveness.
  • We've deferred loading some team-specific data for each row, allowing meaningful content to appear sooner while the rest loads in the background.
  • Data fetching is now split per team, enabling parallel loading—meaning one team’s row may appear on the board before another, depending on its load speed.
• Skeleton Loaders: To provide a clearer visual indication during loading, we’ve added skeleton loaders that show placeholders for rows still fetching data, improving user feedback during slower network conditions.

New Features

• Mapping Pane: You can now move items across projects with ease using the new mapping pane, enhancing cross-project workflows.
  

• Hide Internal Team Dependencies: We've introduced the ability to hide dependencies within the same team, allowing for a cleaner view when focusing on inter-team collaborations.
  

These improvements aim to deliver a more efficient, intuitive, and user-friendly board experience. Let us know what you think of Boards v2.0!
