SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

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.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up a TypeScript Kanban board with drag-and-drop and columns?▼

Initialize a TypeScript project, install the Syncfusion Kanban package, import the component, set your dataSource, keyField, and columns, configure cardSettings, then call appendTo to render the board.

Can I bind remote OData or Web API data to a Kanban board?▼

Yes, the Kanban board supports remote data binding using DataManager, OData, ODataV4, Web API, and UrlAdaptor for CRUD operations, alongside local arrays and custom adaptors.

How do you configure WIP limits and swimlanes for a task management board?▼

Swimlanes group cards by attributes like assignee or priority with support for frozen rows and sorting, while WIP limits enforce minimum and maximum card counts per column to regulate workflow.

Does the TypeScript Kanban component support accessibility and large datasets?▼

Yes, the Kanban component includes ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation for accessibility, plus virtualization support to efficiently render and manage large datasets without performance degradation.

What's the best way to handle custom dialogs and validation in a Kanban workflow?▼

You can use built-in or custom dialog fields with validation rules for card editing, enabling server persistence patterns to ensure data integrity when adding or updating tasks in the workflow pipeline.

Can I drag multiple cards between columns or integrate the Kanban with a TreeView?▼

Yes, the drag-and-drop functionality supports internal and external transitions, multi-select dragging, and integration with TreeView and Schedule components for extended workflow management.
