Kanban App for the terminal written in rust

This kanban app will allow the user to be more productive by prioritizing tasks and achieving goals faster

Why?

I am new to rust and wanted to learn the language in a project-oriented manner, feel free to drop feedback on my code😁. Another reason for building a TUI is that I spend the majority of my time in the terminal whether it is testing or running code or writing code in neovim. I haven't been able to find any other alternatives so I have started to make my own!

Contribution

Feel free to make a pull request or make a new issue, I am open to suggestions ✌️ ** I currently do not own a Mac so I am unable to test the app on Mac, if you can test it on Mac, please let me know if there are any issues.

TODO

• Unify all text input fields and improve the way they are handled (currently there are multiple ways to handle text input)
• Optimize logger to handle high volumes of logs (app becomes sluggish when there are a lot of logs)
• Make configuration for integer values more user-friendly (e.g. when changing the number of columns in the kanban board)
• Add a date picker for the date field
• Improve error handling by implementing best practices
• Implement animations for UI elements
• Implement a way to sync with other services like notion
• Write Tests
