Looks like it‘s already on the roadmap: Obsidian Roadmap - Obsidian
Thanks for quoting my issue/feature request!
When I look at the roadmap, I’m pretty excited:
View types
Add more Bases views beyond table and cards, including list and kanban.
Thanks for your hard work!
Yes! +1 for supporting Kanban views in Bases
+1 for kanban view in Bases. This would dramatically increase the usefulness of Obsidian as a project management tool.
I didn’t realize the Kanban project mgmeyers/obsidian-kanban was abandoned or neglected for so long. I am going to take a good look at it because there are a lot of things I’d like update and improve. I had plans to hook my own Obsidian plugin into it to utilize its features.
I believe that the Obsidian team IS COMMITTED to working with this particular task. The Kanban board view in Bases, in my opinion, will bring Obsidian to a new level of popularity.
I can see this is in the roadmap, but I don’t see any way to “follow progress” over there 
I’m assuming I should just subscribe here and someone will undoubtedly let the thread know when the feature request has been filled? 
+1 for this. Giving Bases a kanban view would make them actually useful for project management.
I made a plugin that does this: Bases Kanban Plugin
I still insist that such a plugin must absolutely be official (since the user’s workflow could potentially rely on it, and long-term support is crucial here), but this particular instance is very good. I hope the developers, in their version planned on the roadmap, will use the same logic as in this plugin, where moving a file within one column automatically changes the values in the property on which the sorting is based.
I agree I only intend this to be a stop-gap and looking forward to sunsetting it as soon as the official version is released.
It’s worth mentioning the TaskNotes plugin here which does this very well (though it also does a lot more, and a lot of it I don’t need as such).
A core plugin would be very, very useful and welcome indeed.
Especially if it also supports drag and drop between columns, and styling of the view.
+1 looking forward to this. As a new user I’d love to be sure that all my use cases are future proof without spending more time to figure things out / rebuild my workflow.
+1 for Kanban view
I tried the Cards view, and if you group by a property such as “status”, you can get something a little like a Kanban, but not horizontal. You can’t edit the status property directly in the card though.
Being able to edit the visible properties in the cards would help. Dragging to a new status would be even better.
Signed up just to bump this thread.
Kanban is the only thing I use Obsidian for, and both community plugins being abandoned just calls for it to be a core plugin.
+1 For Kanban and Calendar Views in Bases
Even though this could somehow be achieved with TaskNotes and TaskGenius, the former is relatively extensive and overpowered and requires hours of setup, while the latter is not as visually appealing (UI). Most people just want task files from templates with specific properties, which should be directly editable in a view, including via drag and drop, and filterable and groupable based on self-defined properties. That’s basically the ewerx plugin; it just needs to be official so that it’s stable and as agnostic as possible.
The mgmeyers Kanban-Plugin was very well done in terms of the board and card management but lacked a generalizable approach for file and property based editing, filtering and grouping.
Obsidian should not make too many assumptions at its core, but a pure “view” of Kanban and calendars does not do that. The big question: Are tasks created when editing a note - or via a task interface as a separate note for each Task does not need to be answered definitively.
I would also love to see this feature. The closest solution I found that mimics this view is splitting the window into columns. Each column is a card view that filters out only one value of the property. This allows me to drag the cards between columns. Of course, it’s so time-consuming to set it all up, that it defeats the whole purpose. But at least it gives me hope.
The disadvantage is that the number of views for this particular base gets bloated with unnecessary views. The more values are possible, the more views it requires.
Was searching for something like this. This would be so good for many things.
+1 for this.
It’s been on the roadmap for some time, and given that @ewerx could vibecode a great prototype, it seems to be a reasonable amount of work. Very much looking forward to it arriving.
I suspect that it’s not hard in term of single “program” but it’s hard to make Kanban part of bigger system (Bases and Obsidian) in a reliable way.
Easy way looks like this:
- Obsidian team fast release Kanban
- Users make own Kanban cards
- Obsidian team add new function
- Users Kanban cards are messy
- Repeat
We saw similar scenario during Properties release.
I’m not fully using community Kanban plugins, because I know that I’ll have to make everything from scratch at some point.
