Overview
JavaScript Kanban board is a task scheduling control that provides clear user interface representation to manage multiple stages of work. The Kanban board is widely used in various real-time applications such as task scheduler, project management, software or product development, manufacturing process, personal task management, and much more.
Flexible layout
By default, JavaScript Kanban has a simple layout with cards and columns. But users can create complex Kanban boards based on their application needs and integrate with any team in an organization.
Responsive and touch-friendly
JavaScript Kanban library has a highly responsive layout and a finely optimized design for desktops, touch screens, and smart phones.
Touch support
User-friendly touch gestures and an interactive UI design on Kanban help produce the best user experience.
Adaptive UI
The JavaScript Kanban user interface adapts automatically to mobile and desktop devices. This helps the application to scale elegantly across all form factors without any additional effort.
Data binding
Data binds seamlessly with various local and remote data sources, such as: JSON, RESTful services, OData services, and WCF services.
JavaScript Kanban loads data on demand by default to reduce transfer and load times. Proper field mapping is mandatory when binding Kanban to the data sources with different field names.
Workflow
The Kanban restrict or allow card transitions from one column to another to maintain a controlled workflow process.
Work in progress (WIP) limits
Users can set limits to the card count at each stage of Kanban workflow to avoid working on multiple tasks. Kanban columns visually change its appearance when validation fails.
Card options
A card is the main element of Kanban board that provides clear representation of tasks and flows across various stages.
Customizable cards
Change the look and feel of Kanban cards by customizing their default appearance and style using any HTML or CSS element.
Drag and Drop cards
Provides smooth drag-and-drop support to modify the status of cards.
Selection
Easily select multiple cards using mouse, keyboard, or touch interfaces. You can also make multiple selection of cards by pressing the Shift key.
Columns
The JavaScript Kanban board divides its layout as columns to visualize the different stages of work, e. g. to-do, validate, in-progress, testing, and completed.
Expand/Collapse column
Built-in support is available for expanding and collapsing the columns by interaction and programmatically. Users can also control the collapsible behavior on page load.
Multi-key
Users can map multiple keys to single columns to group similar columns. i.e., development column has implementation, review, and testing.
Card editing
JavaScript Kanban provides full support to create, read, update, and delete operations (CRUD) on cards. In addition to built-in editing through dialog, users can create a template that suits their application needs. Editing operations are performed with the help of a data manager.
Stacked header
JavaScript Kanban allows you to add additional headers to group the logically related columns above the column header in a stacked manner.
Swimlane
Visually split the Kanban board horizontally to categorize the cards based on key i.e., assignee, project, or type. Users can customize the swimlane header with templates and control the visibility of empty rows and items count in a swimlane row.
Frozen rows
The Swimlane frozen rows option makes the rows always visible at the top when scrolling the content. It is mainly used to show corresponding swimlane rows.
Tooltip
Display card information with a default tooltip or customized tooltip template.
Templating
Users can customize the UI elements of Kanban using templates i.e., column header, cards, swimlane header, and tooltip.
Localization and RTL
JavaScript Kanban can easily be adapted to any language and culture. It also has support to render in the right-to-left (RTL) direction.
Localization
Localize all the static strings that are used in the user interface of the JavaScript Kanban control using the localization (l10n) library.
Right to left (RTL)
JS Kanban allows you to render its layout, columns, and cards from right to left to improve the user experience and accessibility for RTL languages.
Built-in themes
Five built-in SASS-based themes are available, such as Material, Bootstrap, Fabric (Office 365), Tailwind CSS, and High Contrast.
Developer-friendly APIs
Developers can have full control over the UI and behavior of the Kanban board through its built-in, developer-friendly APIs. The simple and extensible APIs allow you to customize Kanban functionalities with ease.

Light and fast
I like JS controls the most, they are simple to use and easy to integrate to JS apps. In ASP.NET MVC your controls behave very nice, although I consider I have more control by using the JS version
