Kanban boards compared: live boards in Starlex vs Jira

Starlex boards update live for everyone, stay fast with hundreds of cards and let each person tune density, card detail and columns.

The board is where a team spends most of its day. Jira's boards are flexible and well known. Starlex focuses on making the board feel instant and shared.

Live for everyone

When someone moves a card, edits a title or adds a comment, every open Starlex board shows the change within a moment, without a reload. Cards that arrive in the done column play a small finish effect for everyone watching.

Fast on big boards

Starlex only draws the cards you can see, so a board with hundreds of issues still scrolls and drags smoothly. Search still finds cards that are off screen.

Your board, your way

Each person chooses density, whether descriptions and images show, and how long completed cards stay visible, without changing the board for anyone else. Every status can be a column, and a project can mark one column as finished and one as cancelled.

Compared with Jira

Jira boards are built from saved filters and board configuration that usually only admins touch. Starlex puts the useful choices in each person's hands and keeps the board live, which is what makes a shared stand-up screen work.
