  4. Switch between the Plain Text and Markdown output tabs.
  5. Click Copy Board to copy the current output.
  6. Load the agile board or personal todo sample to explore.

  • Plain text output is an aligned ASCII table with per-column task counts.
  • Markdown output is grouped checklists: - [ ] for open tasks, - [x] for done ones.

  • Two built-in samples: agile board and personal todo.

FAQ

What does the WIP limit do?
It caps the number of tasks allowed in that column; 0 disables the limit and over-limit columns show a warning.
How do I move tasks?
Hover a task to reveal the left and right arrow buttons and move it to an adjacent column; the x button deletes it.
How does Markdown decide the [x] marker?
Tasks in a column named Done are rendered as - [x]; all other columns render - [ ].
What happens if I remove a task from the input?
The matching task is removed from the board as well.
How many columns can I have?
Any number of columns, but at least one is required.
