YouTrack Adds More Design Improvements
YouTrack’s new design has received more updates to make working on your projects easier. Project overview pages have been redesigned to increase clarity, with clickable hierarchy paths to help you move between project contexts. An improved project creation wizard with new project templates makes setup faster for general task management needs, advanced project management, and marketing. You also get a shared default dashboard and a growing set of useful apps.
Redesigned project overview pages
Project overview pages now offer advanced project-centric navigation, with all project information closer to the main YouTrack menu. Using the left-hand sidebar, you can access issues, articles, and boards related to the project and manage project settings more efficiently. Additionally, you can create new tasks or articles within a selected project directly from the project overview page.
If you manage multiple projects simultaneously, switching between contexts is now easier. A project drop-down list has been added to the clickable hierarchy path for project overview pages, so you no longer need to return to the project list.

New project templates
The improved project creation wizard now includes templates tailored to specific team needs. You can start with the simplified Task Management template for general needs, or use the advanced Project Management template when you need to track various work types and time spent. The Marketing template is designed to classify tasks by marketing activity, campaign focus, channel, and more.

Other enhancements
Ability to clone dashboards and articles
Creating new dashboards and articles in YouTrack just got faster. You can now clone an existing dashboard and tailor it to fit your personal, team, or customer needs. We've also added a Clone Article workflow that you can either attach to your projects as-is or customize as needed.


Conditional values for task fields
You can now specify which values are displayed for a given field based on previously submitted task information. For example, you can configure the Location field to display only options in Germany if a user selects Germany in the Country field when creating a trip task. You can define conditions for multiple values of a single field, allowing for a more tailored task creation process.

More improvements
YouTrack Server can now be installed and upgraded via Docker images for both Linux and Windows. We've also implemented support for Azure Repos and Azure Pipelines, enhanced the Microsoft Entra ID authentication module and integration with Microsoft Graph, and more.
