Boards: Feature Maturity
## Summary
Boards are a flexible way to visualize your product plans (epics) and work streams (issues). Our boards implementation is quite robust and allows users to filter content, drag and drop, edit records, view record metadata and group issues by epics.
Boards are considered [complete](https://about.gitlab.com/direction/maturity/) from a maturity perspective. With the gap feature listed below, we can elevate Boards to lovable.
### Boards features users want
As feedback is collected, I will update this table below. If you have ideas for making boards more useful for your workflows, please comment in this epic and mention @amandarueda.
