Extension summary

This extension transforms your new tab page into a Kanban-style TODO list. Your tasks are grouped into four categories:

  • Backlog: tasks that are defined but work has not started yet;
  • Blocked: tasks on which work cannot continue due to hard dependencies on other tasks;
  • In progress: tasks for which work has started;
  • Completed: tasks that have been completed.

The typical workflow is to add a new task to the backlog, promote it to in progress when you start working on it, and finally promote it to completed once it is done. You should mark tasks as blocked if you have to wait for another event before continuing work (e.g. waiting for a reply, or for something to be fixed before work can carry on).

Task creation

Each category is shown as a column in a table. You can create a new task by clicking the empty space in the desired column. You can also create a new task by pressing Alt+n when the page has keyboard focus.

Nice, simple to-do board I do wish it had mouse support, but hotkeys are decently mapped

The extension would be great if tasks could be created directly from chrome tabs (instead of the CHROME tab create a task in a table). For this, an export / backup would be useful. This would be a great addition to GTD applications that lack the kanban view (e.g. CHECKVIST, NOZBE etc.)

no clear instructions on how to just open the app. i am unsure how to open the app in chrome. The extension shortcut in chrome takes me to the product page in the chrome store, not the actual app. I'm review this app based on my ability to even get it started. i have not technically used the app.
