Getting Started

New to DevStride? Start here to set up your workspace and learn the vocabulary.
    Admin Onboarding
    A guided path from an empty workspace to a working one: set the stage, model your work, map your workstreams, and bring your team on board.
    Basic Terms
    The core vocabulary — workstreams, items, boards, cycles, and statuses — and how the pieces relate to one another.
    Keyboard Shortcuts
    A quick reference for navigating DevStride without reaching for the mouse.

Major Modules

The places most day-to-day work happens.
    Map Value: Workstreams and Work Items
    Organize work into workstreams and create the items — stories, bugs, tasks — that move it forward. Includes the map, the items table, and dependencies.
    Plan Delivery: Boards
    Perpetual and cycle-based boards, board views, WIP limiters, and how DevStride decides when work happens.
    Track Progress: Gantts
    Build and read Gantt views to see schedules, dependencies, and how a plan is actually tracking against its dates.
    Measure Performance: Reports
    Burn-down, burn-up, velocity, cycle time, throughput, and cumulative flow — what each report tells you and when to reach for it.
    Service Desk
    Take in requests from outside your team: email channels, request forms, requesters and companies, and working a ticket end to end.

Personal Workspace

Your own corner of DevStride — what you're working on and how you're notified.
    My Work
    A single view of everything assigned to you across boards and workstreams.
    Notifications
    Choose what you're alerted about and how, for yourself and for your teams, so you stay aware without the noise.
    My Account
    Manage your profile, security settings, and personal API keys.

Workspace Administration

Configure DevStride to match how your organization actually works.
    Manage Items
    Find, filter, and bulk-edit items across the whole workspace, and save views to share with your team.
    Automate Workflows
    Set up triggers and actions that handle routine updates for you, so work moves itself along.
    Configure Settings
    Your organization profile, users and roles, and the data model — item types, statuses, tags, priorities, custom fields, and estimation.
    Permissions
    How roles, sharing, and access control work, and how to grant the right people the right level of access.
    Filters, Sort, and Options
    Narrow, sort, and customize every view in DevStride — boards, cycles, items, reports, and more.

Planning Concepts & Use Cases

The methodology behind the tools, and worked examples of common scenarios.
    Project Planning Tools
    Gantt charts and Kanban boards explained from first principles — what each is good at, and how to set one up well.
    Use Cases
    Step-by-step walkthroughs of everyday scenarios: plan a sprint, run a standup, refine a backlog, and manage cadences.

Integrations & Extensibility

Connect DevStride to the rest of your toolchain, and extend what it can do.
    DevStride MCP Server
    Let AI assistants read and update your workspace directly. What the MCP server is, how to connect it, and how to get real work out of it.
    Plugins
    Extend DevStride with purpose-built plugins. Weekly Logs brings time tracking into your workflow — log hours, view team entries, and export timesheets.
    Connect Your Tools
    Link GitHub, Jira, AI assistants, and direct database access so data flows between DevStride and the tools you already use.
    API Reference
    The full technical reference — authentication, request format, and every endpoint with sample calls and response examples.

Developer Experience

For engineers building DevStride itself.
    Developer Docs
    Set up your environment, learn the ds CLI, and get to know the codebase, local development, deployment, and maintenance.
    Agentic Skills
    How the Claude Code skills work in this codebase — the planning loop, the delivery loop, and how skills are audited.
