Understanding the other available view types

The form and list views are essential user interface components, but other than them, a few other specific view types can be used.

We're already familiar with the three basic views: form, tree, and search. Beyond these, the following view types are also available in Odoo Community Edition:

kanban presents records as cards that can be organized in columns to create Kanban boards.
activity presents a summary of scheduled activities.
calendar present records in a calendar format.
graph presents data as a graphical chart.
pivot presents data as an interactive pivot table.
qweb is used to declare QWeb templates to be used in reports, Kanban views, or web pages. However, this is not a web client-supported view type like forms and lists are.
