How To Use miro

Now, let’s use Miro. I will make it from my page.

Basically, it’s a whiteboard called “BOARD” where you add various ideas. For boards, samples such as “mind map”, “Castamagjani”, “Kanban”, “Workflows” and “Roadmap” are available depending on the purpose.

I’ll try making “mind map”.

From the above template, you can do the following:.

Basically, you can operate it intuitively. The main menu is on the left.

I think it will be easier to understand that “Oh, it moves like this.” when you try to type characters or drag and drop.

Next time, I will try to put a Fusen.

If you want to put together images and feelings that come to mind by color, you can improvise grouping. You can select the paper balloon from the fourth menu from the top.

As you can see above, the great thing about miro is that you can intuitively figure out almost anything by just trying it out.

various miro templates

In addition to the mind map and Fusen mentioned above, there are a variety of templates available for Miro depending on the purpose. It is introduced in digest.
