What is a scrum template?
The scrum template is pre-formatted to help teams organize and plan their work within the Scrum framework. Scrum is one of the most popular frameworks for implementing agile. With scrum, the product is built in a series of fixed-length iterations called sprints that give teams a framework for shipping on a regular cadence.
Boards
Scrum boards help agile teams break large, complex projects into manageable pieces of work so focused teams, working in sprints, ship faster.

Backlogs
In the scrum backlog, you can organize your sprints, fill them with issues of different types, then estimate and prioritize these issues.
