Rustic Boards
Rustic Boards is a sleek and powerful CLI-based Kanban board application built with Rust, combining performance and usability for seamless task management. It simplifies task tracking and collaboration with an intuitive command line interface and robust features.
Rustic Boards emerges from the philosophy that performance should not be sacrificed for usability. Built on the robust foundations of Rust, known for its speed, safety, and memory efficiency, Rustic Boards offers a powerful CLI-based Kanban board experience like no other.
Note: The application is currently supported only on Windows machines. Support for other operating systems is part of future roadmap.
Design
- Clear and intuitive CLI command structure
- Simple binary format for storing the Kanban board data
- Organize tasks into status categories (e.g., "To Do", "In Progress", "Blocked", "In Review", "Done") to represent the workflow stages
- Add notes for tasks and subtasks to track granular details
- Robust input validation to handle unexpected user inputs gracefully
- Provide clear and helpful error messages to guide users when mistakes or issues occur
