GitHub Kanban Viewer (VS Code Extension)

Open and manage a GitHub Projects (v2) Kanban board directly inside VS Code.

Setup

1. Open this folder in VS Code.
2. Install dependencies:
   • npm install
3. Compile:
   • npm run compile
4. Press F5 to run the extension in the Extension Development Host.

Configure the Kanban URL

Set the setting githubKanban.url to the URL of your Projects Kanban view, for example:

https://github.com/orgs/<org>/projects/<projectNumber>/views/<viewId>

Use the command

Run GitHub Kanban: Open Board.

It will:

• require a VS Code GitHub authentication session (github provider),
• use GitHub GraphQL to load your Projects v2 board data,
• open an integrated Kanban webview in VS Code,
• allow drag-and-drop card moves between Status columns (applied immediately).

Limitations / Known Issues

• This version supports Projects v2 only.
• It currently expects a Status single-select field in the project.
• It loads the first page of items (first: 100); very large projects will require pagination enhancements.
• Card ordering within a column is not persisted yet; status transitions are persisted.
