Track time spent on Trello cards
Trello helps you create cards to manage your projects and track their journey, from start to finish. The YoCoBoard widget helps you track time spent on each Trello card. Your team can log their work hours spent on Trello cards without switching between YoCoBoard and Trello app.

Do i have to create the projects manually in my yocoboard? or there is a way the yoco extension can link trello projects?
As and when you clockIn from the respective Trello card, the title of the card gets synced with YoCoBoard as task description on the respective clocked in entry. YoCoBoard doesn’t sync anything else other than the Trello card title.
