Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not really but it is good to have.

Describe the solution you'd like Kanban board view for Nextcloud Tasks and Deck.

Describe alternatives you've considered Opening Nextcloud Tasks/Deck through the browser.

Additional context For Tasks, this might be implemented using the Status filter and for Deck, this could be done with Stacks.

Hi and thanks for using Planify, just like the previous issue, CalDAV doesn't support Sections, that's why I limited it to just a list of tasks. Maybe you could use a parent task as a Section and its children as sub tasks.

Hi, I don't know if it will be of any help, but here's what NextCloud displays when you allow it to display Desk tasks in the Tasks app.

Nextcloud-Desk_in_Tasks

Decks are listed in the task list, with the prefix Deck: Kanban columns are listed as main tasks, with the prefix List : Common tasks are subtask

Notes:

  • The tick-box is black, with no action possible.
  • The Deck: and List : prefixes don't follow the same structure... Deck: , with no space berfore the colon List : , with a space ...

That's just how it's displayed, and might not reflect how all this is coded... Since I'm no developper, I can't say much. I just tought that the use of Prefixes in the name could be a way to work around it...

Proper Deck compatibility will rely on the use of its APIs, just like Todoist I imagine, but that's an other whole project !

Once/If we get this developed, I would really love column view for the upcoming tasks! I haven't seen this requested in any other issue. I might prototype something in a bit if I get the chance!

What is the status of this issue? As I can see there is a kanban styled board for "On This Computer" Projects but same is not available for nextcloud. Do let me know if there is some blocker or it is depended on some other issue

That's an idea ! The highest level of tasks for a project could be used as a Section !

There could be an option in the project presentation : "Consider Parent Task as Section for Table View"

Or Table View toggle that would automatically consider the parent tasks as sections.

Are there plans to look into this any time soon or even ongoing work on how this can be implemented?

Would be awesome to have this feature.

I did not look into the code base enough but is there a simple possibility to display this as board view based on names and subtasks.
