Yes
- Community plugin by tu2-atmanand that turns markdown tasks across the vault into a kanban board view inside Obsidian.
- Notable as the first Obsidian kanban plugin to finally support swimlanes — a long-standing gap in the older
obsidian-kanbanplugin.
# Key Features
- Kanban columns — configurable status columns (Todo / In Progress / Done / custom)
- Swimlanes — group tasks into horizontal rows by tag, file, project, or any other property, giving a true two-dimensional board
- Markdown task sync — tasks live as plain
- [ ]items in regular notes; the board is just a view, no proprietary format - Filters — narrow the board by tag, file, due date, or priority
- Due dates & priorities — inline metadata is parsed and surfaced on each card
- Drag & drop — reordering on the board updates the underlying markdown
# Why It Matters
- Swimlanes let you slice a board on a second dimension (e.g. project per row × status per column) without maintaining a separate board per project.
- Previously this required either juggling many
obsidian-kanbanboards or building DIY Dataview pages.
