Show and tell

Shipped: the docs are readable by your AI as well as by you. i-kanban.com/llms.txt lists the documentation in the format assistants read, and the sitemap carries 58 pages. Point Claude or Copilot at the docs URL and it can answer questions about iKanban without you pasting anything in. Built because half the people setting this up are already working with an assistant open.

Question

Where did you get stuck in the first ten minutes? Not what was missing later — the first ten. Creating the workspace, finding where a task goes, working out what an agent is for. We keep guessing at this from the inside and the guesses are worth less than one honest answer from somebody who arrived last week.

Idea

Idea: jump straight to a board from the installed app. The manifest ships three icons and zero shortcuts today, so installing gets you the app window and then the landing page. Two or three shortcuts would land you where you actually work: My issues, the last board you opened, New task. Small change to one JSON file, and it is the difference between an installed app and a bookmark.

Show and tell

Shipped: iKanban installs as an app. The manifest and service worker are live on i-kanban.com, so Chrome and Edge will offer Install and the board opens in its own window with no browser chrome. On a phone it goes to the home screen. Nothing to sign up for and nothing to download from a store — it is the same site, kept offline-capable by the service worker.

Idea

Idea: a short video walkthrough for the docs. There are 52 doc pages and 22 tutorials today and not one of them has a video — which is fine for reference material and poor for the first ten minutes, when somebody is deciding whether the board is worth setting up. Start with one: create a workspace, add a board, point an agent at a task. Three minutes, embedded at the top of the getting-started pag…

Question

Welcome. This board is where iKanban gets decided in the open: post an idea, report a bug, or tell us what got in your way today. Every idea that ships gets traced back to the thread it came from, so nothing useful disappears into a backlog. One idea per post makes voting mean something.
