Overview

The React Kanban board is a task scheduling control that provides clear user interface representation to manage multiple stages of work. The Kanban board is widely used in various real-time applications such as task scheduler, project management, software or product development, manufacturing process, personal task management, and much more.


Flexible layout

By default, Kanban has a simple layout with cards and columns. But users can create complex Kanban boards based on their application needs and integrate with any team in an organization.


Responsive and touch-friendly

React Kanban has a highly responsive layout and a finely optimized design for desktops, touch screens, and smart phones.

Adaptive UI

The Kanban user interface adapts automatically to mobile and desktop devices. This helps the application to scale elegantly across all form factors without any additional effort.


Data binding

Data binds seamlessly with various local and remote data sources, such as: JSON, RESTful services, OData services, and WCF services.

React Kanban loads data on demand by default to reduce transfer and load times. Proper field mapping is mandatory when binding Kanban to the data sources with different field names.

Data binding options available in React kanban


Workflow

The Kanban restrict or allow card transitions from one column to another to maintain a controlled workflow process.


Work in progress (WIP) limits

Users can set limits to the card count at each stage of Kanban workflow to avoid working on multiple tasks. Kanban columns visually change its appearance when validation fails.


Card options

A card is the main element of Kanban board that provides clear representation of tasks and flows across various stages.

Kanban Drag and Drop

Drag and Drop cards

Provides smooth drag-and-drop support to modify the status of cards.

Kanban Multiple Selection

Selection

Easily select multiple cards using mouse, keyboard, or touch interfaces. You can also make multiple selection of cards by pressing the Shift key.


Columns

The Kanban board divides its layout as columns to visualize the different stages of work, e. g. to-do, validate, in-progress, testing, and completed.

Kanban Toggle Column

Expand/Collapse column

Built-in support is available for expanding and collapsing the columns by interaction and programmatically. Users can also control the collapsible behavior on page load.

Kanban Multiple Key

Multi-key

Users can map multiple keys to single columns to group similar columns. i.e., development column has implementation, review, and testing.


Card editing

React Kanban provides full support to create, read, update, and delete operations (CRUD) on cards. In addition to built-in editing through dialog, users can create a template that suits their application needs. Editing operations are performed with the help of a data manager.


Stacked header

React Kanban allows you to add additional headers to group the logically related columns above the column header in a stacked manner.


Swimlane

Visually split the Kanban board horizontally to categorize the cards based on key i.e., assignee, project, or type. Users can customize the swimlane header with templates and control the visibility of empty rows and items count in a swimlane row.


Frozen rows

The Swimlane frozen rows option makes the rows always visible at the top when scrolling the content. It is mainly used to show corresponding swimlane rows.


Tooltip

Display card information with a default tooltip or customized tooltip template.


Templating

Users can customize the UI elements of Kanban using templates i.e., column header, cards, swimlane header, and tooltip.


Localization and RTL

Kanban can easily be adapted to any language and culture. It also has support to render in the right-to-left (RTL) direction.

Right to left (RTL)
