Problem/Motivation

The Agile Kanban board are increasingly popular for product & project management

Proposed resolution

Add Kanban board to Drupal PM (Project Management)

Below is the same suggestion as above. But with detail if this is of interest.

For Drupal PM (Project Management) port to Drupal 9 or 10, I suggest considering those four options:

Features needed:

  • Drag-n-drop Kanban board
  • Filters to show only the items presently of interest. For example, filter by owner, contributor, customizable tags.
  • Kanban Swimlines

Details about views_kanban module

  • Screenshot 1
  • Very flexible
  • Most likely the easier module to integrate with PM. Because views_kanban is a Views.
  • Can be customized to PM liking. Again, because views_kanban is a Views.
  • Supports both Drupal 8 and 9
  • Try views_kanban now:
    1. Go to https://simplytest.me/project/views_kanban/9.5.4
    2. Using the Add additional projects group, add this project bootstrap5_admin
    3. Click on Launch Sandbox button
    4. Go to /admin/modules
    5. Activate both the views_kanban and views_kanban_demo module
    6. Go to /kanban to view the kanban board
    7. Click on any of the Add button to add new Tasks
    8. If needed, the documentation on the project page might be useful at https://www.drupal.org/project/views_kanban

    I clarified this ticket summary. As my suggestion is about adding a Kanban board to PM. Not about a specific Kanban option. There are many Kanban board options to choose from. I added two options. burndown or content_planner modules.

    For a Kanban board in Drupal PM (Project Management), my vote goes to adding support for Burndown in PM. Two benefits with Burndown:

    • Join efforts. Because jeremylichtman, the maintainer of Burndown, suggested it for PM. In his comment #16 📌 Port PM to Drupal 10 Active . Both pm and burndown modules could remain fully independent. While at the same time, jeremylichtman might be interested to facilitate the integration of burndown into pm. I suggest asking him.
    • Dedicated module. According to jeremylichtman, Burndown module is presently focusing its efforts on a Kanban board. So it might be easier for PM to support Burndown. In comparison, content_planner module is not focussed on a Kanban board. So it might be more challenge for pm to both support Content Planner.

    This API approach 📌 Port PM to Drupal 10 Active also seems like a good idea. That I know of, Burndown does not presently have an API. But, in the future, jeremylichtman might be interested in adding this API feature to his Burndown module? In turn, PM and Burndown would be able to interact. Another benefit with an API approach is that PM could use various modules or external apps for a Kanban board. In other words, the end user could pick and choose a Kanban board to their liking. So more flexible and more durable. Because if somehow one Kanban board product is no longer available, the others would still be available.

    I added a fourth suggestion to consider for a Kanban Board for PM. How about this views_kanban module?

    Benefit with views_kanban:

    • Very flexible
    • Most likely the easier module to integrate with PM. Because views_kanban is a Views.
    • Can be customized to PM liking. Again, because views_kanban is a Views.
    • Supports both Drupal 8 and 9
