Getting started
Updated October 28, 2026
This section covers everything you need to go from zero to a working board with your first task on it.
In this section
Authorization — How to log in using your Telegram account, both inside the Mini App and in the browser. No password, no registration.
Quick start — A walkthrough of your first few minutes in Laraue Boards: send a message to the bot, watch it become an issue, and move it through statuses.
Before you begin
You need a Telegram account. That's it. There is no separate sign-up, no email to verify, and no credit card required. In the browser you can also sign in with Google, but the bot works only with Telegram.
The moment you log in, you already have a personal organization with a default space, a board, and a Backlog set up — there's nothing to configure before you can start. Send a message to the bot and it becomes an issue right away, no setup required first. The first time you open the organization in the browser, Boards offers to name that space and add a few demo issues to show how things work; you can skip it.
Open @msgboard_bot in Telegram to get started, or visit boards.laraue.com in your browser.
