Obsidian Kanban

This project is a markdown kanban board and visual task organizer. It serves as a productivity extension for personal knowledge management, providing a board-based system to manage task status and progress through a drag-and-drop interface.

The tool implements a kanban workflow by converting plain markdown files into draggable columns. This allows for the visualization of work stages and the organization of project tasks within a local knowledge base.

The system covers project management and visual task tracking by structuring unstructured notes and lists into interactive boards. It uses markdown files to store all board layouts and card data, ensuring compatibility with plain text editors.
