Jannoo: the kanban board that lives in a folder
Jannoo is a native Mac kanban app whose boards are Markdown files and JSON on your own disk.
Field notes
Jannoo represents boards as ordinary folders containing Markdown cards, JSON metadata, and adjacent attachments, so a card move changes a small set of local files rather than a hosted database. The sample includes priorities, labels, checklists, due dates, and timestamps, with a concrete release board showing 21 additional attachments. The site also describes optional GitHub binding, Obsidian access, and Git-based diffing, while presenting Pro features such as epics, dependencies, outlines, and custom fields.
