How to build a custom process board without coding

Building a process board without coding in Jestor takes minutes, not weeks: just pick the source table and Kanban & Pipe is already configured, ready to customize colors, fields, and filters. No line of code is required at any step.

How Do You Build a Process Board Step by Step?

Open the Action bar (Ctrl+K or Cmd+K) from any screen in the platform.
Choose to create a new Kanban from an existing table or from scratch.
Define the process phases (e.g., requested, in progress, completed).
Customize colors, displayed fields, and conditional coloring by phase.
Add filters to view by owner, date, or priority.

Why Does a Customizable Board Make a Difference Day to Day?

A generic board, without custom fields, forces the team to keep information somewhere else. A board built for the company's actual process eliminates that duplication and gives immediate visibility into what's stuck.

How Does Jestor Make This Customization Easy?

Kanban & Pipe is created in one click from any table, with full customization of colors and displayed fields.
Build Apps lets you add fields, automations, and process-specific rules without code.
The Action bar creates any new element — table, kanban, form — from anywhere in the platform, with no menu navigation required.
