Kanban Board

Kanban Board with Drag and
Drop Task Management

Custom Kanban boards: configurable columns, drag-and-drop status changes, board reordering, card previews, and live updates.

Kanban Board
How it works

From a blank board to your team's live workflow in four steps

Set up TARO's Kanban once and it runs itself: drag a card, the column updates status, the team sees it.

1

Configure

Build the board around how your team actually works

Create, rename, reorder, and delete columns to match your process, from a three-column board to a seven-stage QA pipeline. Each column maps to a task status, so dragging a card into a column updates that status automatically.

2

Cards

Every card shows the full picture without opening the task

Each card previews what your team needs at a glance priority, assignee, due date, checklist progress, tag, and subtask count all on the card surface without clicking in. The card is the summary; the task detail is one click away when you need it.

3

Drag

Drag a card across. Status updates instantly.

Drag a card to a new column and three things happen at once: the task's status updates to match, the change is logged to activity history with user and timestamp, and Pusher pushes it to every board live.

4

Real time

Every teammate's board stays in sync automatically

TARO uses Pusher WebSockets to push every board event card moved, added, edited, or column reordered to every connected browser the instant it happens. The standup opens with a board that's already current. No stale cards, no missed overnight moves.

Why TARO Kanban

Six reasons teams never go back

Once your standup board shows every teammate's card movements from the last 24 hours in real time, a static board nobody trusts feels absurd.

Engineering Teams

The standup board shows what actually happened not what people remember.

Open the Kanban board at standup and the real-time activity feed shows every card movement since the last sync. No one reports what they did the board shows it. Standup shifts to handling what's blocked or at risk.

Questions & answers

Everything you need to know about TARO's Kanban Board

Common questions from engineering leads, PMs, and scrum masters evaluating TARO's board.

How do configurable columns map to task statuses?

Each Kanban column maps to one of TARO's seven task statuses: To Do, In Progress, In Review, On Hold, Completed, Cancelled, and Pending Approval. You assign a status when creating a column, and dragging a card into it updates the task's status so board and detail stay in sync. Multiple columns can map to the same status for sub-stages (e.g. Backend Review and Design Review both as In Review). The mapped status is what analytics and AI read.
