All new roadmaps and initiatives
Roadmaps and initiatives
Our big update this time is that we have completely revamped how roadmaps and initiatives (previously themes) work. Notable changes:
- Initiatives no longer need roadmaps.
- The work items are now listed in fully featured real boards and lists with all the functionality you get within the spaces.
- Roadmaps are enabled on the organization level, and all roadmaps will be visible in the “Roadmaps” section in the sidebar.
- Both initiatives and roadmaps can be shared among spaces, allowing for better cross-team collaboration.
- Roadmaps are editable boards, so you can change the column titles, add and remove columns, and make the roadmaps fit your needs.
There are many new things. Just go explore, or head over to our guide to read more.
Beta features
AI in product development
We are currently working on various AI features for Kitemaker. Some are small and some are larger things. If you have specific things you would like to see in Kitemaker regarding AI, LLM, or machine learning, ping us, and we'll take a peek. And if you are lucky, maybe we are already working on it 😊
✨ Parts of this changelog were written using one of our features in testing ✨
Sentry integration
We currently have a Sentry integration that we are waiting to get approved, but in the meantime we have a way for teams to test it. So if you are a Sentry user and would like it connected closer to Kitemaker ping us.
