# Kanban board — Web app

A visual board that organises items into columns representing stages or statuses, allowing users to track and move work through a workflow.

## Items

### Columns
Distinct vertical lanes representing each stage of the workflow (To Do, In Progress, Done, or custom stages)

_Tip: Every team structures their workflow differently, so adding, renaming, and reordering columns should be available_

### Cards
Individual items displayed within each column, showing the title and key metadata at a glance

_Tip: Title, assignee, and due date on the card face covers most use cases without cluttering_

### Drag and drop
The ability to move cards between columns and reorder them within a column by dragging

_Tip: A visual drop target as the card is dragged to indicate whereWithout it, users are never sure where the card will land_

### Quick add card
A fast way to create a new card directly within a column without opening a full form

### Card detail on click
Clicking a card opening its full detail — description, comments, attachments, history — without leaving the board.

_Tip: Card detail in a side panel or modal rather than navigating away — losing the board context frustrates users._

### Column item count
A count of how many cards are in each column, visible in the column header

_Tip: A count is useful for conversations and to keep track of column amount without individually counting items_

### Filtering, sorting and grouping
The ability to re-organise cards by assignee, label, priority, or due date to focus on a subset of work, as an example
