Organize tasks visually with a drag-and-drop Kanban board. Three columns: To Do, In Progress, Done. Data saved locally, no signup required.
A Kanban board is a visual workflow management tool that uses columns and cards to track tasks through stages. Originated from Toyota's manufacturing system in the 1940s.
Formula
WIP Limit = Team Capacity ÷ Average Task DurationWIP Limit = maximum number of cards allowed in the In Progress column
Team Capacity = number of people or hours available for concurrent work
Average Task Duration = typical time to complete one card from start to finish
Worked Example

Did you know? The Kanban system was developed by Taiichi Ohno at Toyota in the late 1940s. 'Kanban' literally means 'visual signal' or 'card' in Japanese. It revolutionized lean manufacturing and was later adopted for software development by David J. Anderson in 2007.
