Love the new Grid View and the ability to unfold sub-items like the List View. For my (scrum) team the (Kanban) Board View is crucial for Sprint Planning, Backlog Grooming and all the usual agile shebang. For this, we need the ability to show both User Stories as well as Tasks. JIRA does a nice job with this: ![screenshot_JSW_KanbanBoard](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/9/901b0dd85084d97480268e6ee2417d16b4d32de5.png) While the basic Board View allows for some workarounds with formulae, it’s far less powerful than the Grid and List view, where I can filter and sort the cards. We’re using quite a bit of nesting and so, I would want to have the support for hierarchies and the grouping that comes with it and the ability to choose the card size. Thanks! ---

Do you mean that you would want nesting hierarchies (a bit like list view) within each ‘cell’ of a board view? ---

So here is what I can do with some additional formulae on an entity (which is spammy, especially as `State` is a reserved word) and some manual (error-prone) sorting: ![2023-08-22 at 18.20](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/a/ae706776d0802ef89f0f6bc3474263ed37960e99.png) As requested [before](https://community.fibery.io/t/ad-hoc-formulas-in-views/2932), a dynamic would help me half-way, but in reality, I’d want to be able to have my (in this case) Capability and unfold it to see the Features in it. In the JIRA example above you see two interesting behaviours: 1. Right bottom (SMART-44) belongs to SMART-43 → a child gets grouped to its parent 2. Middle bottom (SMART-29) belongs to SMART-3 → and if there are multiple, they usually get grouped without the parent ---

YES, absolutely!!! 🙂 ---

Hi Chris, Do you know if there is any progress on this? (See also related issue: [Nested entities in board view](https://community.fibery.io/t/nested-entities-in-board-view/10227)) Thanks! ---

Nothing to report. But I hope it will soon be possible with custom apps to make reusable data views in whatever format you like, including this. ---

Thanks anyway, @Chr1sG ! Of course, it would be great if these UI improvements were native to Fibery, but I hope custom apps can bridge this gap soon as you say 🤞 * * * _Note:_ I’ve had some success with making Kanban board custom apps with foldable subtasks, but the AI seems to be unable to make the app behave as cleanly (e.g., expanding to adaptively fill screen) as Fibery’s Views, and the entity views in particular are a bit clunky. In particular, I haven’t been able to reproduce Fibery’s native rich text editing experience within custom apps
