Pipelines are where work finds definition. They’re the foundation that gives structure and clarity to you and your teammates about what you’re doing and what you’ve done. It’s important to us that these pipelines are comfortable places to work — that they’re easy to understand, reflect on the character of the work, and are representative of the team contained within them.

Eagle-eyed users might have noticed that we added a new settings option to the far right of our pipeline view a week ago. That was the first of a larger effort we’re making to improve the experience our users have with their Pipelines.

Today, we’re launching additional enhancements to that settings option with Pipeline Themes: a new way to add visual clarity to your pipelines.

The all-new Pipeline Themes manager

Pipeline Themes are a curated set of colors for the stages of your pipeline. They open up a whole new realm of seamless customization in Streak.

Color-coding stages has always been available, but with Pipeline Themes we’re giving you a new way to do this: they scale gracefully as you add more stages, have defined points, preserve their coloring, and respect any specific customizations you’ve made to a specific stage’s color.

Switching themes is quick and easy.

To get started, just open a pipeline and select the gear to the far right of the stage bar. Streak will handle the rest. ❤

Editor’s note: Special thanks to Raoul R. for creating the themes manager. His favorite theme is Aurora (Light), his favorite animal is puppies, and he loves to swim.
