In this article, we will introduce the integration method using the no-code tool "Yoom".

No complicated settings or operations are required, and even non-engineers can easily achieve it.

You can start right away using the template below, so please give it a try!

Visualizing tasks makes them easier to organize, doesn't it? That's why commonly used task management tools like Trello are very convenient. On the other hand, task management tools specialized for specific industries, like GitHub, are extremely effective for a select group of people and allow for detailed settings on specialized content.

As a result, there may be people who manage broad tasks with Trello while managing more detailed tasks with GitHub. However, inputting them separately can be a bit of a hassle. More importantly, when considering it as a team, both Trello tasks and GitHub tasks are still "content needed by the team."

So this time, we have made it easier to manage team tasks by integrating Trello and GitHub without code. It is expected to make communication between teams smoother. Please take a look!

Benefits of Integrating Trello and GitHub

1. Reduce Redundancy

When a new card is created in Trello, an Issue with the same content will be created. This eliminates the need to manually input the content of the card created in Trello into GitHub, reducing duplicate work. Eliminating repetitive tasks will likely save time.

2. Facilitate Information Sharing Among Teams

By integrating, even if the project management team uses Trello and the software development team uses GitHub, the same information can be shared in real-time. This makes it easier to grasp the overall tasks, and it is expected to smoothly progress the workflow.
