Create and manage a Space
In this article
All the work inside Plaky happens on a Space, which contains Boards and Items. When you first register, Plaky will automatically create a default Main Space. You can then create as many additional Spaces as you need.
¿Qué es un Espacio? #
A Space is a top-level entity in Plaky, and it contains Boards and Folders, which contain Items. Think of a Space as a dedicated area for a team, department, or project portfolio. Everything in Plaky lives inside a Space.
