Light Weight Kanban Board

Motivation

As a developer, I would really like to have a simple agile methodolgy to manage my "To-Do" lists. I tried my level best to find a simple one, but I couldn't. Everything was either using a huge payload of frameworks, or needs sophisticated database. I thought, why not create my own version of a Light Weight Kanban Board, and also open source it to other developers.

Now that we have a working basic model of the code, contributions to the code are welcome. Please create a pull request for your contributions.

Demo: Heroku

Requirements

• Web Server: Apache or IIS or nginx.
• PHP Version: PHP 5+. Should be backward compatible with older versions.
• Browser: Latest version of Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox.

Installation

• Clone or download this repository and upload it in your web server.
• The different boards are defined in settings.js.
• The colours for the states are defined in the style.css with the classes .col_*.
• The four different colours for the cards are defined in the style.css with the classes .color_*.
• The only PHP file that is used to fetch and write the data is server.php.
• The data file is defined in the server.php on the first line as define('DATA_FILE', 'data.json');. It is recommended that you change the file name. Also note that if you clone this project you won't have a data.json file, so please create one on the first run; you can look at the data.json file above.
