What problem does it solve?

Implementing a full-featured Kanban board requires wiring together complex UI controls, drag-and-drop behavior, data binding, dialogs, accessibility, and performance optimizations; this Skill removes guesswork by providing authoritative patterns and ready-to-use configurations for Syncfusion's TypeScript Kanban component. It helps developers avoid subtle bugs and accessibility regressions while producing maintainable, production-quality Kanban implementations.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Board Setup: Instructions for initializing the Kanban, CSS imports, theme choices, and Vite TypeScript setup.
• Columns & Cards: Single-key and multi-key columns, stacked headers, card templates, header/content mapping, selection modes.
• Swimlanes & Grouping: Group by assignee/priority with templates, frozen rows, empty rows, and sorting.
• Data Binding: Local arrays, DataManager, OData/ODataV4, Web API and UrlAdaptor CRUD examples, and custom adaptors.
• Dialogs & Validation: Built-in and custom dialog fields, validation rules, and server persistence patterns.
• Drag-and-Drop & Integrations: Internal and external drag-drop, transitionColumns, multi-select drag, TreeView/Schedule integration.
• Advanced: Virtualization for large datasets, priority/RankId handling, WIP limits (min/max), persistence, localization, RTL, and accessibility (ARIA/keyboard).
• Use Cases: Sprint boards, support ticket pipelines, content publishing workflows, manufacturing process flows, and recruitment pipelines.

Quick Start

Initialize a TypeScript project, install @syncfusion/ej2-kanban, import Kanban, set dataSource, keyField and columns, add cardSettings with headerField/contentField, then call appendTo('#Kanban') to render the board.
