Collaborative Post-It Board

With more and more teams working remotely, tools have sprung up everywhere, shifting online processes.

In the spirit of agile approaches, let’s start by breaking down our requirements. Our retrospective board needs to allow us to:

• Add, edit and move cards

• Allow everyone with access to the board to see live updates

• Only let people access the board with a username and password

• Only let cards be edited by their creator
