Kanban Board
Adapt a kanban board to how a project actually works, not a fixed template.
Different projects needed different workflows, and most task boards forced everything into the same rigid column structure.
A public deployment is available to try.
Case Study
Before
Managing multiple projects with different workflows required a flexible system that could adapt to various task management styles without complexity overhead.
After
Achieved a lightweight yet powerful task manager that loads instantly, works offline, and supports multiple board configurations for different project types.
How it's solved
Built a drag-and-drop kanban board with customizable columns, real-time state management, and keyboard shortcuts for power users. Used React DnD for smooth interactions and localStorage for persistence.
Trade-offs
No real-time multi-user editing — concurrent edits from two tabs can overwrite each other.
