The Problem

I've tried Notion, Trello, Linear, and half a dozen other project management tools. They're all built for teams of 30, not one person juggling content and tasks. I don't need sprint planning. I don't need story points. Too many features, too many clicks, too much friction for what should be simple: move a card from "doing" to "done."

I wanted a kanban board that works exactly how I think. Two boards: one for tasks, one for content. No features I don't need. No onboarding flow. Just open it and start moving cards.

How It Works

• Dashboard board for tasks with columns: Backlog, Doing, Done
• Content board for posts with columns: Idea, Writing, Posted
• Quick actions on every card. Hover any card and you get a checkmark to complete it and an X to delete it. One click, done. No modals, no confirmations for routine actions
• Optimistic UI everywhere. Actions feel instant because the UI updates immediately and rolls back if something goes wrong on the server

The Build

Built with Claude Code. The key feature that made this actually usable was Asana-style quick actions. Before that, completing or deleting a card required opening a form, which caused a full page reload. Now you hover and click. That single change turned it from a tool I built into a tool I actually use.

The ContentBoard originally didn't even have a delete button. Adding quick actions to both boards at the same time meant removing the old form-based interactions entirely. Cleaner code and a much better experience.

What's Next

I use this daily now. The plan is simple: add features as I need them, not before. If I start needing due dates, I'll add due dates. If I need tags, I'll add tags. But right now, two boards and quick actions is exactly enough.
