About the board layout
The board layout spreads your issues, pull requests, and draft issues across customizable columns. You can create a kanban board by setting your column field to a "Status" field or set any other single select or iteration field as the column field.
You can drag items from column to column and the value of the item will adjust to match the column you drag them to.
For more information about changing a view to use the board layout, see "Changing the layout of a view."
