What the publisher says

From the KanbanThing repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

KanbanThing

A free kanban board you can share with a link. No account, no email, no install.

****

You name a board, choose a password, and get a link. Anyone you send that link to opens the same board and moves the same cards. That last part is the point — most free no-signup kanban tools keep the board in one browser's local storage, so it can never really be shared. This one is shared by default.

What it does

people who should see the board but not change it

  • Columns you can add, rename and reorder, starting from To Do, In Progress and Done
  • Cards with a description, a colour and a due date, moved by drag and drop or from the card menu
  • A backlog for work that is not scheduled yet
  • A calendar view of the same cards by due date, and a timeline view by most recent activity
  • A password on every board, set when the board is created, plus a read-only link for

drive the same board a person has open in a browser — see the CLI docs

  • Light and dark appearance, following your system setting
  • A command line client with --json on every command, so a script or an AI agent can

What it does not do

There are no accounts, no teams, no permissions and no paid tier. Boards are deleted up to 60 days after they are created, so copy out anything you want to keep.

If you need long-lived project history, this is the wrong tool, and that is on purpose. It suits work with an end in sight: a retrospective, a short project, or a personal board you start again every few weeks.

Guides

  • Choosing the columns on a kanban board
  • Running a retrospective on a shared board
  • Personal kanban: running a board for one
  • Edit links, read-only links and passwords
