The contribution of kanban for personal task management seems to be limiting work in progress.

Overall it seems that kanban would work OK for car factories, where there is a fixed set of cards that is recycled, and very poorly for software projects, where backlogs are infinite and each card is unique.

While I have found using kanban with personal projects to be pretty beneficial for quantifying progress, there’s something that feels wrong about agile seven days a week between work and personal projects.

Most companies nowadays already use Kanban workflows for project management. But it could also be a life-changing tool that you could easily integrate into your own personal daily life.

I personally use notion for task management. It’s straightforward to create a view that’s grouped by “status” (or anything) to mimic the kanban swim-lanes. Afterwards it’s a matter of good kanban hygiene (eg <= N active tasks at any given moment etc).
