Trello Folds (Kanban for Trello)

Turn your Trello board into a Kanban system with WiP limits, combining lists, card count and collapsible lists

Trello Folds (Kanban for Trello) is a powerful Chrome extension that transforms your Trello boards into fully functional Kanban systems. By introducing foldable lists and sections, combined lists with shared WiP (Work in Progress) limits, and collapsible cards, it enhances Trello's native organization capabilities.

Key features include the ability to combine multiple lists under a single WiP limit, fold and expand lists easily, mark cards as collapsible sections, and customize alerts when WiP limits are exceeded. The extension also remembers the board's view state and offers configurable settings through its popup. Regular updates improve compatibility and functionality, ensuring a reliable Kanban experience directly within Trello.
