Micro Kanban

Kanban — Quick Guide (MUST READ)

Getting started

• The board opens with four categories: To-Do, Doing, Done, and Floating.
• Add tasks from any column header via + Task.
• Edit any task by clicking it.

Tasks

• Title is required. Due date, time, tags, notes, and card color are optional.
• Past dates are blocked. Overdue tasks are highlighted.
• Tags are comma-separated (e.g., design, urgent).
• Delete a task from the edit sheet, or drag it outside all columns (you’ll be asked to confirm).

Drag & reorder

• Drag cards to reorder or move across categories.
• Drag a column header (or the grip) to reorder columns.
• Auto-scroll kicks in near the left/right edges while dragging.

Progress bar

• Progress shows Done / All and excludes the Floating column.
• Rename columns any time; progress detects “Done” and “Floating” by name.

Columns

• Add Category creates a new column.
• Rename by clicking the column title.
• Delete removes the column and all cards in it.

Import / Export

• Export saves a JSON snapshot of your board.
• Import loads a JSON file and replaces the current board.

For backups, export regularly.

• Storage & privacy
• All data is saved locally in your browser (localStorage).
• No accounts, no sync, no server—clearing site data or using a different browser/device will start you fresh.

Keyboard & mouse tips

• Hold Shift while scrolling to pan horizontally.
• Shift + Arrow keys pan the board stepwise.
• In the task sheet, Cmd/Ctrl + Enter saves.

Mobile notes

• Headers and controls are touch-friendly.
• Long-press briefly to start a drag on touch devices.

Limitations

• Works best on desktop. Mobile and tablet fixes will be avialble soon.
• No multi-device sync or collaboration for now.
• Large boards may feel slower on low-power devices.
• Importing overwrites the current board.
