Task Board

Overview

The Task Board is a personal three-column kanban for the work in front of you: Todo, Doing, and Done. Each task carries a title, a priority (low, medium, high), and an optional due date. Move tasks between columns as the work progresses, and the board's running stats show completion percentage, what is in progress, what is due today, and what has slipped overdue.

The point is focus and honesty. Putting more than a couple of items in Doing forces you to admit you are juggling; an overdue chip is a quiet nudge to either finish the thing or change the date deliberately. Compared to a flat to-do list, the column layout makes the state of your work visible at a glance.

How it works

Add a task by entering a title, setting a priority, and optionally a due date, then hit add. The task lands in the Todo column. Click Doing or Done on the task card to move it; deleting removes it from the board entirely. Tasks in Done get a strikethrough so finished work stays celebrated but visually separated.

The stats row above the board updates live. The progress bar shows completion across all tasks, and warning chips appear when items are due today or overdue. Priority and due-date chips on each card colour-code urgency without needing to open anything.

Examples

• A morning planning session: drag the day's three most important items into Doing and commit to finishing them before anything else.
• A weekly rollover where finished tasks are cleared from Done at the end of the week, leaving a clean board for Monday.
• Using high priority sparingly — only for the one or two tasks that truly cannot wait — keeps the colour signal meaningful.
• Setting due dates on the small number of tasks that actually have a deadline, so the overdue chip stays an honest alarm.

FAQ

How many tasks should be in Doing at once?
One or two for most people. The whole value of a board is the discipline of keeping work-in-progress small.

Do I have to set a due date?
No. Many tasks have no real deadline. Reserve dates for items that genuinely need to land by a specific day.

What does the overdue chip mean?
The task's due date is in the past and it is not yet Done. Either finish it, change the date, or accept it and decide what to do.

Can I edit a task after creating it?
You can move it between columns and delete it. For substantive changes, delete and re-add with the updated wording.

Does the board sort tasks automatically?
Yes. Sorting takes priority and due date into account so the most pressing items appear first within each column.
